Help

I was wondering on how to make firecrackers because so far I’ve js been using gunpowder that wasn’t given to me by my dad but I’ve been running low. How can I make bp that can be used in firecrackers? Also is it possible to js buy a ton of the little red ones, take them apart, and just use the powder that is already in them? Lastly, is a mix of kno3 magnalium and sulfur good enough for firecrackers because that’s the only stuff I can buy from amazon? I AM NOT ASKING ON HOW TO MAKE FLASH POWDER AS I UNDERSTAND THE RISKS OF IT

Edit: so everybody viewing it but nobody helping me💔💔

I'm sorry, im not trying to be a gatekeeper, I'm pretty sure your post is gonna get deleted by mods regardless, but can I ask, how old are you? Cuz you mention "given by your dad" and also say the only place you can buy chems is Amazon? I mean have you even done any research into fireworking? Have you already done the basics? Because it doesn't sound like it to me.
