Historic Hotels of America has a program to put pint-size proletarians to work.

At the Fairmont San Francisco, kids can be doormen; at the Peabody in Memphis, they can toil as a duck master's assistant (shepherding ducks to and from the lobby fountain); and at Mohonk Mountain House in New York, they can be junior naturalists. Eight hotels are offering work programs, some seasonal and some year-round.
