LIFE

Sometimes your allowance just doesn't cut it, but let's face it–babysitting and dog sitting are not exactly the most stable forms of cash flow. But while getting a part-time job can be hard for girls who aren't 16 yet, that doesn't mean there aren't options. Check out our round-up of the best jobs for younger money-hungry babes: 

Referee/Umpire

If you play and love sports, why not make some extra cash on the sidelines by becoming a soccer, lax or basketball ref for a little league? Cute kids and a chance to be outside make for a seriously fun job.  

Cashier/Bagger

Get a job at your local supermarket as a cashier or bagger on the weekends. All you need are good customer service skills and some basic math, and hey–you might get a discount.

Restaurant Hostess

If you like fast-paced work, the restaurant environment is for you. Bonus: free food!

Lifeguard

If you love to swim, try taking classes to become a lifeguard at a gym or country club. Odds are they will have an indoor pool as well as an outdoor pool, so it is a good job for any time of the year.

Still stuck? Here are some of the most young chica-friendly businesses:

• Chick-Fil-A 
• Burger King
• Taco Bell
• Pizza Hut
• Starbucks
• KFC
• Toys R Us
• Wegmans
