How to Tie a Knot in a Cherry Stem With Your Tongue
Pick a cherry with the longest stem you can find, especially if you are trying this for the very first time. Eat the cherry or save it as a little reward for yourself after you've finished Step 7.
Chew on the stem awhile all the way up and down to soften it up a bit and make it more flexible.
Push your tongue on the middle of the stem to bend it into a 'U' shape long ways on your tongue. Bite down on it to make it cross into a loop.
Hold the stem in place with your teeth at the cross.
Push on the end of the stem that is on the top of the cross downward from the tip of the stem while at the same time pushing the loop upward toward the stem with your bottom teeth.
Maneuver the knobby end of the stem through the loop and pull it through with your teeth.
Tighten the knot by pulling the stem out of your mouth from one end while holding the other end in your teeth.

How to Find Ways for Kids to Earn Money (5 Steps)
Choose chores or 'jobs' that are age appropriate for your child. Preschoolers and older toddlers can put their toys away or pair up clean socks, kindergarten-aged kids can make their beds, grade schoolers can do simple yard work such as raking leaves, middle school students can change bed sheets or vacuum and teens can do almost anything that an adult would do around the house.
Decide on tasks or jobs that you actually need someone to do. Avoid simply paying your child to re-do the work that you've already done, such as re-folding he clean laundry that you took care of while he was at school.
Ask for your child's input. Let him tell you what he wants to do or have him brainstorm ways to make money.
Clearly detail the tasks or chores that you expect your little one to perform. Tell your child what his job is and what he must do to earn money. For example, tell him that he must take out all of the garbage every week in order to earn five dollars. Tie this to consequences for not doing his 'job,' such as not getting paid.
Talk to your friends, family and neighbors, asking them if they have a job for your child to do. Ask close friends and relatives if your older child can babysit their little ones, act as a mother's helper, rake leaves, weed their gardens or help out with housework.

How to Make Money Quick on Weekends (6 Steps)
Ask your elderly neighbors if they need a personal shopper. You probably are going to the grocery store anyway and you could piggyback this job with an everyday event. Whether you are paid to give them a ride to the store or they hand you a list to pick up the groceries, this service can be a weekend opportunity to make a few extra bucks.
Put together your items and have a garage sale. Now it is the middle of winter, so you will need to plan accordingly, but folks love to get out on weekends and having a sale inside your garage could do really well. In the summer months, you can plan a garage sale Saturday or Sunday and get a lot of folks to stop by to purchase your used items.
To make extra cash consider becoming a product demonstrator. Setting up a little table at a local grocery store, you give away samples of food products, information and coupons. This job is one that can be short hours with great pay (right around $17 an hour.)
Weekend money making could include watching the neighbor kids. Most of the week is already booked out with daycare and other opportunities, but parents who want a night on the town would love the chance to pay someone to watch their kids on Friday or Saturday night.
A weekend caterer is another amazingly open money making job. Here, you can work on functions that only happen on the weekends. A lot of people find work at local churches and community centers when groups meet.
Teach a class to share your skills with others. If every other Saturday you taught a class and 5 students showed up with $30 each, you would have had a great weekend. There are so many things to teach as well. Computer skills, languages, instructive actions (how to take pictures, etc.) and the list goes on.
