MouseButton1Click > Enable / clone particle to their character (ex, head).
If you want this change to replicate to all players, use a RemoteEvent > FireServer.

Sorry if this is extremely wrong I am very new

script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()

Instance.new("ParticleEmmiter, player.Character.Head")

end)

So do something like this?

You’ll need to get the player instance, then the character.
What you’re currently doing is creating ParticleEmmiter, player.Character.Head, which doesn’t exist.

Here’s an example:

local Player = game:GetService('Players').LocalPlayer

Button.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
   local Character = Player.Character
   if not Character then return end
   local Head = Character:FindFirstChild('Head')
   if not Head then return end
   Instance.new('ParticleEmitter', Head)
end)
#5 
script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()

Instance.new("ParticleEmmiter", game.Players.LocalPlayer.Character.Head)

end)

mine will work but the particle can only be seen by the player who clicked as its created locally

#6 
Button = script.Parent

Button.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()

local Player = script.Parent.Parent.Parent.Parent.Parent

local Character = Player.Character

local particles = Instance.new('ParticleEmitter')

particles.Parent = Character.Head

end)

this works, plus its serversided so everyone can see
