My child is invited to a Bar/Bat Mitzvah. What is the appropriate gift, and what does my child wear?

The gift is a personal choice. Gift certificates are always popular. The child should wear clothes that are appropriate for a religious service.

I am attending a funeral at your Temple. Is it appropriate to bring flowers?
