School leavers CV help

My ds is putting together his first CV. As he's only just doing his GCSEs and hasn't had a part time job before, he has no real work experience.

Would it look stupid to put babysitting younger siblings on as work experience?

As this is something which he does regularly. What about MacMillan coffee mornings which they did at Scouts and Explorers. Serving coffee and cake.

Other than that it's sporting hobbies where he can demonstrate commitment.

That's what my 16 year olds CV looked like. Thank goodness for scouts otherwise there'd be nothing.

He'd also done some charity event at school where he'd planned, organised and operated the drinks station with his team.

It all seems a bit trivial, but it's worth adding anything they've got.

He got a weekend job at a cafe from it.
