Ask the owner if you could work out a reasonable price to pay for the length of time you are working. My dog loves to play in the trash can when my family is not home. You could dog sit the dog.
2.) babysitting.
people may not hire you if you are so young, but you could ask your family members to pay you. You could watch your sibling's, younger cousins, or even babies of family friends.
3.) Yard work.
I did this over the summer at my uncle's house and earned $300 dollars by the end of the summer. I live in an apartment but you could do some gardening in your yard with your mom or dad.
4.) House work.
Maybe wash all of the dishes or do some vacuming. I hated washing the dishes but i got some rubber gloves and earned fifty dollars in one week.
As I said before I hope this helps, maybe go on google and search jobs for kids. I'm still looking for jobs myself. And for some advice don't charge to much for the jobs you don't want to push your luck.

What role did social class have in child labor?
Social class played a significant role in child labor, as children from lower socioeconomic backgrounds were often compelled to work to support their families financially. Wealthier families typically had access to education and resources, allowing their children to attend school rather than work. In contrast, impoverished families faced economic pressures that pushed their children into labor-intensive jobs, often in hazardous conditions, to contribute to the household income. This disparity perpetuated cycles of poverty and limited opportunities for social mobility.
