There's a "tween" girl, Isabel, who makes money out of the 4th of July...

How?

She makes balloon animals!

She does them at local county fairs, and sells each balloon animal for anywhere between $1 and $5.

Since each balloon costs just a few cents at most, that's a pretty good profit margin!

Here's the article where you can read more about Isabel and her balloon animals...

Best wishes,

P.S. It might be a bit late to profit from this idea this 4th of July... But look on the bright side - you have a year to practice making those balloon animals for next year! :)

(Of course, you can actually do this any time of year, but summer is probably the best time...)

P.P.S. Many more unique and unusual profitable businesses written about - in far more detail (including income potential, keys to success, marketing ideas, competition, additional twists, and so on) - in the Hidden Business Ideas Letter (http://www.hiddenbusinessideas.com)...
