Daily Idea #299: APRIL FOOLS
It’s been over a year since I started posting a daily idea and I would be remiss if I didn’t include something for April Fool’s Day. My favorite April Fool’s joke is one I have played on my father since I was quite young. I would run up to him and tell him he had something on his nose. When he would go to look in the mirror, I would then exclaim, “April Fools!” Now, it’s a tradition and while I don’t live with my parents, I will call him every year on this day and play the same joke over the phone or Facetime.
In our house, I like the harmless pranks. Here are a few to start you off—
Take the batteries out of the TV remote.
Put a dab of food coloring on the faucet in the bathroom— when the person turns on the water it will be dyed that color (it only lasts a little while, until the water washes it away).
Say yes to three outrageous requests from your kids today
Turn some pictures upside down around the house
Push a clock forward 30 min
Draw a spider on the toilet paper with a sharpie
