Answer:
Your mom has found what is know as a "puffball fungus". Most are not poisonous but I wouldn't eat them or inhale the orange spores (may cause irritation) that release from the globe. Here is a link with info... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Puffball http://images.search.yahoo.com/images/view?back=http%3A%2F%2Fsearch.yahoo.com%2Fsearch%3Fei%3DUTF-8%26p%3Dpuffball%2Bfungus%2Bpictures&w=375&h=500&imgurl=static.flickr.com%2F2320%2F2071588479_c4de741d9a.jpg&size=161.5kB&name=2071588479+c4de741d9a+jpg&rcurl=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.flickr.com%2Fphotos%2F25747229%40N00%2F2071588479%2F&rurl=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.flickr.com%2Fphotos%2F25747229%40N00%2F2071588479%2F&p=puffball+fungus&type=jpeg&no=1&tt=931&oid=612bc763499af7aa&fusr=emblatame+%28Ron%29&hurl=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.flickr.com%2Fphotos%2F25747229%40N00%2F&tit=From+the+Other+Day+++Pisolithus+arhizus+FUNGUS+in+a+Nearby+Park&sigr=11lumkivm&sigi=11g08idim&sigb=122cja00v&sigh=11a30aupe ...Billy Ray
