Gifts for Crazy Moms
Your mom is so far-out, creative, wild and funny that you refer to her proudly as "my crazy mom." Find an iron-on for a T-shirt, funny-shaped mug or another gift outside the norm that adequately describes her personality and your relationship to her. The best are inside jokes that the two of you will laugh at but not gifts that would be insulting to her.

Polluted Glasses
-
If your mom likes to drink, give her these 13-ounce polluted glasses with the sign for hazardous materials on the front. Pair the glasses with her favorite alcoholic beverage and enjoy the intoxicating poison. The glasses are hand-blown from lead-free glass.
Hand-Held Fan
-
Gag gift your crazy mom who always has hot flashes by presenting her with a battery-operated hand-held fan. She now has a refreshing way to attack those hot flashes and flushed cheeks.
-
Dog Buddha
-
For the moms who like dogs more than religion (this might offend actual Buddhists), wrap up a five-inch statue of a dog in a meditative lotus pose. It could be on its way to enlightenment or envisioning a doggy bone.
Mom T-Shirts
-
Write a saying or find a shirt that describes your mom. Maybe it can show her silly or curmudgeon-like personality like a shirt that says, "I don't know is not an answer," "What part of no don't you understand?" "Your hands are not broken" or "No one said life is fair." It can also be an iron-on print that you find on the Internet.
Racing Grandma
-
Tease your crazy mom about her age and give her a couple of elderly speed walkers. Buy two wind-up racing grannies that use their walkers to the max. Wind them up and watch them whiz across desks and kitchen tables.
Time Bomb Timer
-
Maybe she's crazy because she's like a ticking bomb. If your mom has a sense of humor, give her the double entendre of a time bomb timer for the kitchen with a scary skull. It's funny and useful. Let her enjoy the cooking experience with a nearby ticking bomb that could go off at any minute.
Food Stamp
-
Some moms like to play with food. They make pancakes in the shapes of faces and Mickey Mouses complete with whipped cream and fruit eyes. Encourage your mom's love of making you crazy food by buying her an "I love you" toast stamper. She'll surprise the other kids and grandchildren with the words stamped in their French toast or toasted cheese sandwiches.
