How about volunteering at a shelter? Or a retirement home for money though....Um or maybe you could have a school store.

oooo, nice ideas. I would like to volunteer at a shelter where abandoned dogs are. Dogs only though. no cats because I am allergic and I just don't like them, haha. And I like the idea of a school store, but I don't know where I would get the supplies

I hope you mean a garage sale, not a garbage sale ;D But I already thought of selling things.

All great ideas - but, on a side note, I say don't waste your money on For Dummies books. HTML and CSS are a couple of my specialties, so I'm willing to help with anything you need/want. And there are TONS of guides out there, and a bunch of other people who are more than willing to help.

I'd say save your money You'll need it one day.

As for raising said money, I like the idea of a lemonade stand. Not very original, but it's good for kids who want to make money

I agree with Bambi (as usual!). The internet is the greatest teaching resource, there are loads of sites out there that can help you learn, pretty much anything!

Here are a few sites that have open source web templates that you can use for free, but not only does it give you a nice layout, but you can look through the code and see how they're built, which is a great way to learn! It works for me anyway!

Open Designs
OpenWebDesign.org
Free CSS Templates.org

The sites listed above (just a few, there are lots out there) are all CSS templates, which is a good thing to learn as it follows web standards.

Hope that help

I want to buy some For Dummies books about HTML, CSS, XHTML, etc. so I can design nice web pages. I have one For Dummies book about HTML and it totally helped me!! I want some more For Dummies books, but the thing is they're sooooo expensive! So how can I make money? Keep in mind I'm only ten!! Here are some things I've already thought of:
-Story hour at my house for little kids (money from admission)
-Crafts and games hour at my house for little kids (money from admission and the parents need to pay for the crafts stuff)
-Books and clothes sale (money from the stuff!!)

Nice ideas! How much would the parents have to pay?
Do you have any old stuff in your hosue that you could sell?

[simmy1smeeve]

For the craft stuff just enough for craft sticks, feathers you know little things and admission could be like a $1. I do have old stuff I could sell A lot of old clothes I've outgrown and books I want to get rid of.
