Our neighbor went for a two-week vacation last month so she hired our kids to water her plants while she was gone. She also hired them last year when she went for a vacation. She has a big vegetable garden which is plenty of fruits. She asked us to pick some of her vegetable that are ready
I told the kids that if she try to pay them that they should tell her she doesn't have to but she insisted to pay them $30. My daughter's share went to her savings and my son went to his wallet. He said that he is saving for something hehehe.
When I was a kid, I used to look for something that I could do during summer time when I am off from school. Mist of the times, I helped my Mom cook some snacks and sell it to our neighbors.

I love to watch my kids work in the garden and I love the fact that they love what they do!

Your kids are very hard working. It is never to early to teach them the value of hard work. Good job!
I used to pay kids to do things, but then they either stop doing them and want the money, or want more money than it would cost for me to hire a gardener to do the same thing. Dilemmas...,
Really great life lessons your kids are learning!
