April Fools Pranks*
Doughnut Seeds
Pull a silly little prank on your kiddos in the morning by offering them packages of “Doughnut Seeds” for breakfast. Place a handful of Fruit Loops in a small cellophane bag, then staple it shut with a label that says “Doughnut Seeds.”
Postal Surprise
Your mailbox is the perfect prank vehicle to put a little startle into someone you love. First, wait till your mail carrier has delivered the mail for the day (you don’t want to freak them out when they’re doing their job). Then, add a little something unexpected to the box—a rubber snake, a smattering of plastic insects, a realistic and slightly terrifying toy, or anything that will make your prank victim take a big jump back. Attach a note to the back that says “April Fools’!”
Voice-activated
Bring an appliance into work for the day, or tell the family that you bought a new toaster or coffee maker. Place a sign on the appliance that reads “voice-activated.” You’ll be doubled over laughing at all the people yelling at the toaster to toast.
