When i was your age i use to gather up a couple of my friends and do carwahes as the shops. We used to make like $100 each. That was a good way to make money. Or maybe you could have a little garage sale, get all your family to donate old clothes and things and make some extra cash that way. As for the presents, i usually make babies forever boxes for presents. Just get a box, paint it & decorate it. Maybe put a few photos of the baby it is for on it & then they use that box to put all the things that person wants to keep forever. Like painting and little baby clothes and stuff.
