What is a quick homemade craft my little brother and sister can make for my Mom for Christmas?

Q. He's 4, she's 5, I'm 14.
I'm babysitting them right now, and we decided to make another gift for mom. What's a fun, quick, easy homemade present we can make? I tried a macoroni necklace but we don't have enough different types of pasta.

A. I'm a pre school Teacher so this one will be fun to answer...I have lots of ideas, so I'll put one out there for you... Do you have paint? and construction paper? If not, use anything you can trace with, " pencil, pen, crayon, marker..but you'll need some kind of paper paper. Using washable paint, lightly paint or place child's foot in it so you can print it on the paper and allow time to dry. .. also do the same thing with each child's hands."Both hands" allow to dry.. if you have no paint trace 1 foot of each child, and do the same with both of their hands and let them color them or paint them... when dry "If painting" cut out and use the hands for wings of an angel... the foot "HEAL" on top, for the angels head... toes pointing down for the bottom of the angels gown. Glue wings in the middle, using the heal so the toes are pointing out. Now draw the eyes, nose and mouth... makes a GREAT tree ornament.Just string at the top and put on the tree. If you would like more ideas...let me know.. Merry Christmas! :-)
Don't forget to put your brother and sisters names and ages on the backs of the angels, and you can add glitter or any other decoration.. Have fun with it... Make one from your hands and foot also... I'll be fun for all of you.

Does the recipient have a legal claim over a gift?
Q. We recently got burglarized and now that insurance payed up, my mother is trying to take some of my cash and share it with my siblings in order to reduce whining. A small portion of the net value which I presume is owed to me comes from gifts my mom bought me when I was a small child (19 now) such as video games. Does the value of those gifts go to me or my mother? And if it is owed to me and my mother doesn't give it up can I take her to court?

I live in Canada, if that does anything.

A. The gifts were given to you so they are now your personal property. The value goes to you.

what do you get for wedding gift for your parents mother and father of bride?
Q. What do you get for your parents for paying for your wedding.

Do you get your mom and dad a gift seperately?

What about the groomsmen family will it be a different gift?

My mom likes Belleek stuff so was thinking of getting a large frame by that company and put our photo in it, could this be for my dad too?

A. Your parents do NOT want a gift from you.

They want you to have a nice wedding and be happy with your new husband. Period.

Give them a big hug and tell them "Thank You. I love you both."

That's all they want.

If you want to get them a framed wedding picture, that would be the MOST that they'll be comfortable with. Do the same for your husband's parents.
