![]() ![]() While technically still “brown-e’s,” this April Fools’ version is a lot less scrumptious! I always like to have actual brownies on stand-by, making this a harmless prank that won’t disappoint. Instead of the real tasty treat, the pan contains cut-outs of the letter E on brown paper. With great fanfare, present each student with their special surprise. Pass out napkins and slowly uncover the tinfoil wrapped pan that has been sitting on your desk all day. Invite your students to share a special treat. There is nothing tastier than warm brownies served with a glass of milk. Here are some favorites! Let’s Have Dessert – April Fool’s Brown E’s And if you don’t want to prank your students, I have TWO engaging educational activities that will allow you to still bring in some April Fools’ Day fun in your classroom….and they are free for email subscribers. This post will share my favorite April Fools’ Day jokes and pranks for teachers. Bedtime classicīorrow a summer camp classic and short sheet your kid’s bed before bedtime - when he tries to get in, you’ll have the last laugh.When April Fools’ Day falls during a school week, it is the perfect time for teachers to pull a harmless April Fools’ Day prank on their students. See how long it takes for your kids to realize that you really aren’t that cool after all. Then “frost” them with creamy mashed potatoes. Bake up mini meatloaves in muffin cups (don’t forget the colorful wrappers). Your kids will think you’re the coolest mom ever - for a moment at least. Milk shenanigansĪdd a few drops of food coloring to the carton of milk when your child goes to pour it into her glass or bowl of cereal, she’ll get a colorful surprise - bright pink (or blue, or green) milk! Cupcakes for dinner Put a whoopee cushion under your baby’s high-chair cushion, under the booster seat or car seat cover and see if you get a laugh from the baby, his fart-loving older brother or your hubs. After breakfast, hand over their toothbrush - but instead of the usual white paste, opt for something white, creamy and…sweet! Cream cheese or vanilla frosting will do the trick if they use a colored kids’ tooth gel, try using cake decorating gel instead. Surprise your kids this April Fools’ Day with a little toothpaste switcheroo. Obviously if you have younger children, you’ll want to take the balloons out of their room before they drift off to sleep. When they put their head down to sleep, they’ll realize you got the last April Fools’ laugh. Remove the pillows and fill their pillowcases with several partially inflated balloons. Just when they thought April Fools’ Day was over, here’s one last prank. This is April Fools’ and not Halloween, after all. When the water is turned on, you’ll have colored water! You might want to stay away from red. Use a Q-tip to put gel food coloring around the inside of the faucet in the bathtub or sink. Offer up brownies as an afternoon snack, but everyone will be shocked when they find brown letter “E”s (get it - brown “E”s?) instead! Bathtime hoax Amanda Mushro The hotter the water, the more clear the ice will be when frozen. Add almost boiling water to the ice cube trays and toss in a few plastic bugs. This oldie-but-goodie prank is easy to make at home with this tip. Honk and wave at me!” This joke is even funnier if they get to take a ride in the car with you. Let your practical jokers put a sign on your car that reads “My kids are playing an April Fools’ joke on me. A good option: “You’re going to wash your hands, right?” Roll the toilet paper back up and wait to see who ends up getting the message. Unroll the toilet paper and leave a funny message for the unsuspecting user. Give your kids a laugh at lunchtime by attaching googly eyes to, well, everything. Swap out their underwear drawer for bathing suits for an early morning prank. Juice joke Amanda MushroĪnyone want juice? When your family tries to taking a sip of this juice, they'll find out it’s really Jell-O. When your hungry kids try to dig in, they’ll get quite the surprise. Put cereal and milk in a bowl and let it freeze overnight. If your kids are heavy sleepers, carry them into their sibling’s bed and let them wake up in a different room to start April Fools’ on the right foot. Keep on scrolling for some good old-fashioned fun. Pranksters and prankees alike will get a kick out out of these silly gags. It goes without saying that you should stay away from any pranks that'll bring your kids to tears - unless the tears are from laughing so hard. ![]()
