I am going to make presents for my mom and dad, they are divorced, so i need 2 different ideas. Also, if you have any ideas for prank presents that would be something i want to also do.
Buy 2 picture frames (you can get them at $1 store) and put in a picture of just you, or a picture of you with your mom/dad/family. You can also make "coupons" that are redeemable for favors or nice things throughout the year.

it's hilarious if you give a crappy gift in the end like a little chocolate
as for the gifts, perfume or something kitchen related for your mom and for your dad...chocolates?
Some especial Christmas cards made by yourself. It would be simple and nice.
Wave a scarf for your mom is good and cook some delicious food for your dad.
I'm in 7th and I just give them a homemade card because they say that's the best.. not sure if it's the truth :] Anyways, one of my friends made a soap scrub for her mom and customized a cap for her dad. You could also get just a gift card or something.. I don't think you should buy clothes though because of the fitting and everything. Good luck!!

Everyone appreciates it when a gift is really personal---like some nice baked cookies or sweets. Decorations can be geared towards the recipient, and can be serious or fun.
