What kind of job can a 10-year-old have besides a paper route?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

wash cars, baby sit, mow lawns, lemonade stand, rummage sales, that's all i got

Several ways including

You are so young that I would suggest just asking your parents if you can help around the house for a little money, but if you realy want a proper job, then there are certain things you can do. These include:

  • ** Looking in newspapers/magazines/online (<------ BE VERY CAREFUL ONLINE AND ALWAYS TELL A PARENT/GUARDIAN WHAT YOU ARE DOING)
    • Helping around the house and/or doing extra jobs for family members
    • Placing adverts in shop windows (<---Do NOT give out any personal information and if you do, tell your parent/guardian.)
    • Post leaflets (make sure you have a licencse)

You can do household chores like:
  • Cleaning your room
  • Doing the dishes
  • Mowing the lawn
  • Watering the garden
  • Doing the laundry
  • Making your bed
  • Sweeping the floor

And/or you can help neighbors by:

  • Babysitting
  • Pet sitting
  • Mowing the lawn
  • Watering the garden
  • Getting the newspaper

Don't try lemonade stands: They cost more than the profit.

All of these are good jobs. Don't charge over fifteen dollars or you won't get the job. Ten dollars is the way to go.

Asked by Wiki User

I believe the last Scottish king to speak Gaelic was James IV (1488-1513). He also knew Latin, French, Flemish, German, Italian, Danish and a little Spanish (according to Magnus Magnusson's popular history of Scotland). Plus Scots/English of course.

Does it get completely dark - as in pitch black - near the summer solstice in central Scotland?

User Avatar

Asked by DiamondXmas

In June the northern hemisphere is tilted towards the sun. As you go further north it is very bright. At the north pole, it is facing the sun all of the time in June as the earth rotates. Scotland is further south, so from there the sun does set, but it does not go very far below the horizon, so there is always some brightness there, particularly if you look towards the northern horizon. The brightness is like anywhere in the world in the period just before sunrise or just after sunset. The sun is below the horizon, but not far enough for it to be completely dark. In June in Scotland, throughout the night it is not far below the horizon and then it rises again. Because it is never far below the horizon then it is not going to be completely dark.

Why is Scotland the setting of Macbeth?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Firstly, Macbeth is set in Scotland. Secondly, it is a superstition, especially in the UK, that saying the word "Macbeth" whilst in a theatre is bad luck for the performers (there have been mysterious bad luck occurances during performances of Macbeth to create such superstition, ie: deaths etc). Since these bad occurences the play is considered to be cursed. To avoid risking the luck of the actors and performances, people will refer to Macbeth as "The Scottish Play." It is also called "The Bard's Play."
