Tomorrow is April Fools’ Day, the one day of the year where you can get away with elaborate pranks and sophomoric gags alike with some amount of impunity. So as long as there are no serious consequences – that is consequences that last longer than 24 hours – you’re pretty much good to go. Now all you need are some good pranks. So in case you’re like most people (i.e. me) and don’t already have your three-part April Fools’ plans already lain out, here are some quick and easy last minute April Fools’ Day pranks for you to try.
The Old Rubber Band on the Faucet Prank
Not much to explain here. Put a rubber band over the bottom of a faucet, then stand in wait for your unsuspecting target(s) to use the sink. Hilarity ensues. Note: this works best in the morning before your target is fully awake.
Pretend Parking Ticket
Another simple trick. Print out a fake parking ticket. Insert under the windshield wiper of your loved ones, and wait for the response. For a quick result, write “April Fools!” in big bold letters on the back.
Set The Clock Two Hours Ahead
Pretty self explanatory, this works best for family members or with significant others. Simply wait until your target has gone to bed, then change both their clock and their alarm two hours ahead. That way, when their alarm goes off they panic thinking they’ve overslept two hours. At which time you can yell: April Fools!
Related prank: Set their alarm for the middle of the night, then hide their clock in a drawer. Leave a note saying April Fools’ attached to the clock.
Superglue Coins to the Ground
Empire Records anyone? This one is also self explanatory. Glue coins to the ground in a busy area, the sidewalk works well, and wait nearby as people passing by try to pick up the coins.
Pant-Splitting Fun
Find an old piece of cloth. Then place a dollar bill on the floor. When you’re unsuspecting target comes along, stops, and bends down to get it, rip the cloth down the middle. Almost every time the target will reach back in panic to check their pants.
These should give you a good start. Any other ideas you can think of? List them in the comments section.

hey sandee are you saying are jokes suck
are you???
Here’s one it’s nothing special or awesomely funny but its fun with a bunch of people at school
theres a traditional french prank where you tape a fish to someone’s back, the hard yet awesomely challenging part is that everyone is expecting someone to tape something onto their back so you have to be extra sneaky. its not much but it’s good old fashioned fun.
my mom and i post-it noted my dads entire truck and he isnt too much of a joke-taker so im waiting on the six o clock AM reaction…..and on the back i made a cute we heart you
Another great april fools prank is.. take the regular coffee and the expresso coffee and switch them into each others bags and watch while ur parents drink 3 cups of expresso coffee while they think it is regular coffee!!!!!!!!1 your parents will never go to sleep
OMG DIDNT HELP AT ALL i need good ones!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
kk
this is what you really do:
rub a pencil led on the edges of a quarter
tell your friends they can have it if they can roll it down their nose
the led will make a black line on their nose
dont tell them there is led on their nose or they will wash it off!
or you could:
take a regular oreo cookie and take out the icing in the centre
replace the icing with white toothpaste
give the oreo to someone
that is a real april fools joke
ok so i got a good one … get some silly string and wait til evaryone goes to bed then sneak out side and spray all the windows with the silly string I did it last year and it works my friend put a big smiley face on her moms bedroom window with toothpaste but she had to clean it off
Heres a good one for you: Tape some magnets to the bottom of a coffee cup and stick it on top of ur car. Then you can laugh at everyone who tries to warn you about it.
Also take a large cloth sack and place some human body looking items inside and put it in ur trunk. Leave it open (on accident of course) and see what people do when they see it!
Dear Friends, Happy Fool’s Day!!!
For the first time in many years, a an old man traveled from his rural town to the city to attend a movie. After buying his ticket, he stopped to purchase some popcorn.
Handing the attendant $1.50, he couldn’t help but comment, “The last time I came to the movies, popcorn was only 15 cents.”
“Well, sir,” the attendant replied with a grin, “You’re really going to enjoy yourself. We have sound now”
Happy April Fool’s Day!
try the app “Dude, your car!!” it’s funny
Aww… I didn’t get to pull any good pranks today; I didn’t have enough time to get it ready or plan it out. All I did was set my moms laptop so the mouse will go SUPER slow and change the language on Google, which she didn’t even go on!
