Can a 10 year old shovel snow?

A 10 year old can shovel snow, as a job, or as a chore. Make sure you take regular breaks to catch your breath. Large amounts of dense snow may be bad for the back!

The only way that a 10 yr old couldn't shovel snow as a job is if they are working for a company that is doing he snow removal b/c of the child labor laws, but if he is shoveling sidewalks or driveways on his own that is fine. And as a chore, DEFINITELY, I have a 12 & 8 yr old and they both shovel snow here around the house. My daughter, the 8 yr old, loves it. She still views anything involving snow as fun, including shoveling. My 12 yr old son does it to, but it isn't quite as fun to him anymore. A chore is a chore though, he knows he has to do his chores to keep all of his game systems and stuff
