My 12 year old son received his first check from Kidzeyes.com. A whooping $10.00. It may not be much but he had fun taking the surveys and accumulating points. Of course, he was EXTREMELY happy when he got his check in the mail.
It's free to join . The surveys are avilable for children ages 6 -12. I believe the have a sister site for teens. My son has completed surveys on food, video games and cartoons.
I have included the link for their FAQs about their company.

Be sure to check out www.your2cents.com, a similar site for all ages, not just kids. I already have a 7 dollar check coming after only completing one survey, so its pretty cool. If you could find me the sister site for teens that would be really cool, or is it linked there? Thanks.

I'm pretty sure there is a link for teeneyes listed but just in case I am giving you the link to a whole list of links I found online. I can vouch for Kidzeyes because my son received his first check. Since Teenyes because it's the sister since so I assume it will pay as well. Tremors has sent my daughter all kids of girly things from makeup, perfume, feminine products, stickers, etc.

My children have enjoyed kidzeyes too! I remember signing them up for it several years ago. As you say, ten dollars doesn't seem like much but they sure enjoy it! They have gotten older now and have been switched to teenzeyes (the site will automatically notify you) and are continuing to enjoy surveys on topics from favorite foods to video games!

What's funny is my teenage daughter didn't take her surveys. When my son received his check, my daughter was like "You mean you get paid money? I thought they just gave your points. LOL She was deleted the surveys because she didn't realize the points were traded in for cash. Now I know she doesn't hear a word I say to her.

Lol, she logged on right away. My oldest daughter is working on a website, She's into cosplay. I set here up with her website building and hosting as a Christmas gift. My oldest son is too lazy. I keep telling them it only takes a little bit of time each day.

I got pretty jazzed when I stumbled across this site. I bookmarked it and went through it with my son and got him all excited. But when we went to register him with the site, we discovered that it was only for the US :( My poor little guy was so bummed out. If anyone knows of a site like this for kids in Canada please let me know.

It's great when children start earning. It's such joy when you get your first cheque! It's a pity there isn't more methods for children to earn safely online.

I did find a few more kid survey sites, but most of them have waiting lists. When kids do join survey companies, you have to sign a consent form and mail it in. They also send the parent a notice of the survey invitation. We're still waiting to hear from the other companies.

My daughter has by a member of Kidzeyes for quite a while now (couple of years).. Sometimes you get alot of surveys sometimes its very slow. She has been selected a couple of times for trial products- these seem to give the most points. I think so far she has gotten around $80.. which is alot for just answering surveys..
Is your son also a member of weekly readers.. My daughter gets alot more surveys through them. They pay in Gift cards or prizes.. No money yet.. She has gotten
$15 Walmart
$20 Claires
$20 Amazon
and just sent for her $20 amazon (second)
She has only been a member here for less than 1 year.

Yes, both my son and my daughter. My daughter is close to getting something! She keeps changing her mind about what she wants to get! LOL
Surveys are a great way to make some extra cash online. I know a lot of people complain because sometimes they can be time consuming, but I always appreciate a few extra bucks here and there each month.

Yes, he feels so important now and ready to open a checking account. I thought it was cute because he didn't realize that he could put it in his savings account. He thought he needed a checking account because he was getting CHECKS now. LOL

Maybe you can try doing a internet search in your country for research companies or focus groups. Your country probably does have somewhere, you just need to find them. Don't search using SURVEY. Try using research or focus group. That's the best way to find legitimate companies.

Thanks for the 411! My little nephew isn't quite old enough yet but I did get the teen website and will be sure to tell my neive about it.It's a good way for kdis to make a little bit of extra cash and what I really like was that it was a member of the better business bureau.

I think it's a great way for them to improve their reading and comprehension as well. Maybe even teach them the value of a dollar.
