Answer
Birthday gift for a 9-year old boy:
1. A roll of Mentos and two 2-liter bottles of Diet Coke (once is never enough!!!)
2. An empty water bottle, a box of baking soda, and a jar of white vinegar.
3. A box of borax, a bottle of Elmer's glue, a bottle of water, and a ziploc bag.
4. A box of cornstarch and a bottle of water.
5. Directions on how to use all these GREAT gifts! (Directions are as follows:)
Do all of these experiments outside:
1. Dump the Mentos in the Diet Coke and BACK UP!
2. Put some baking soda in the water bottle, add some vinegar, and BACK UP!
3. Mix 1 tablespoon of Borax with 1/2 cup of water, mix 1/4 cup glue with 1/4 cup water, pour both mixtures into ziploc bag and knead until it turns to goop. Gross out your friends with it!
4. Mix cornstrach with a small amount of water until it turns to goop. Try to pick it up; try to squeeze it; try to jab it with your finger.
It sounds unusual, but I guaratee it will be the best gift he gets! He will remember it for years to come. I had a "Science Experiment Party" for my son's birthday and I already have kids at school asking me when his next birthday party will be (ummm ... in 10 months!) I've assembled kits like this for kids' gifts (I measure everything out into labled baggies and put it all in a canvas bag from the craft store with directions for the experiments- you can add saftey goggles and an apron if you like), and even though the moms complain a little, even they have to admit how cool and fun they are!!

Birthday gift ideas for mom?
Bubbles! o
My moms birthday is next month and i always wait till the last minute to get something for her and its always a rushed gift, so this year i wanted to take the time and make something or plan something for her but shes so hard to shop for so i need ideas.
Keep in mind
Im 15 dont have alot of money and need something inexpensive.
She likes crafts, gardening, and stuff like that.
Shes remodeing the house right now so can anyone think of something i can make to help her with that, like decorations that are pretty easy to make? She wants the theme to either be beachy, Japanese cultureish, or wasabi style? Not really sure what that is though...
Im pretty good at drawing but i cant doit without directions, and i cant draw people or actual things just animations and stuff.
Im a good cook so i was already planning on making her breakfast, dinner, and desert.
Oh and i cant sew, so nothing to do with sewing.
So anything you can come up with would be helpful!
BONUS QESTION!
Im also making her a cool handmade ( duh ) card but dont know what to right in it and not good at making up poems so if you have any ideas to what to right that would be great!
Answer
Does she have a Sewing kit? And she likes Crafts right? You could look for a Martha Stewart book for her! That would be perfect for her! Or maybe just a craft book would be nice! You can find them for really cheap on http://amazon.com/
Do you have any siblings? Take a picture of you and your siblings, Print it out, Put it in a picture frame, And your mother will surely treasure that!
Something she could relax with, Such as Lotion, A nice book, anything you think she could relax with. That is what almost all mothers need!
Allot of things that teen's get their moms are things such as nice relaxing c.d.s, A candle, Or maybe even a journal, Even Beautiful Flowers!
Okay, for the remodling house, for a beach theme, You could make a sea in A jar! How you do it is find A wide and big container, Put some water in, And ad one to two drops of food coloring.. Then find some sea-shells and sand. Put it on the bottom of the container. Then find some fake rubber fish. put them in the container, Then make a waterproof mini boat, And then put that it, And then you have a mini sea! It is actually pretty cool! And it is perfect for a beach theme!
Okay, For the remodling house - Japanese. Is there a home store near you? Or maybe just some wood you have? Make a Japansese poster! Go online for some free drawing lessons about how to make a Japanese Culture! You could draw something and make it into a poster! Im sure if it was from you, It would look beauitful! Maybe even something that reminds you of Japense will work!
I think the Breakfast, Dinner and Desert idea is Wonderful!
Does your mom like cofee or Tea or anything like that? You could get her a mug!
Bonas Question:
Dear Mom,
Im so glad that you are my mom! You have always been there for me! You are so caring, Nice, Loving, And Awesome! Thanks for everything you do for me! I love you!
Love,
