<human>: First off wanna say this is only my 2nd post ever on Reddit and don't understand any unwritten Internet rules in reddit. 

Okay a little back story: Only 23, my son is 3, just bought a house in December, had a fairly large down payment so I am able to save money each paycheck decently $200-$500 depending on how the weeks go or what bills appear. I'm good about budgeting, always have been since I've been 16. Since my son has been born I've been throwing $50/week In his savings account and shortly his savings account will be reaching $10,000. I'm planning on doing renovations to the house here and there and would like to invest at least $5,000 of his savings to get a return investment on his savings and hopefully also be able to help pay for doing some renovations to our house more regularly. My dad is a plumber/electrician/overall construction guy so that helps too.

Can you condense the text into a few key points?
<bot>: i Want to invest $5,000, what are my best options to hopefully turn a profit and optimally double it and so on?
