Who's psyched for Friday? And of course, FRIVOLITY?? ;P Today's theme is April Fools Day, which is lucky because otherwise I NEVER would have remembered it was coming. In case you're forgetful like me and need some inspiration, here are some of my favorite tricks and pranks I've come across lately.
First up, the frozen cereal trick....
So easy and so classic! Tragically, we have no cereal in my house right now, which means this prank won't be making the rounds this year.
Hehe this one is just fun and silly....
This one is a little gruesome in a Halloween-y way, but I still think it would work great for an April Fools prank on an adult, or big kids...
Along the same line... *laughing ghoulishly*
If you have small-ish kids, they will definitely get a kick out of this one!
What's your favorite April Fools Day prank?? Please share!

Featured Post from Last Week:
In a fun twist, since we now have four hosts we will also have FOUR FEATURES.... but you will have to go check out the other three blogs to see if you were featured there! ;)
"The Funny Side of Sleep Deprivation"
Erin over at Stay at Home Yogi shares stories of the random and hilarious things she's done "under the influence" of child-caused sleep-deprivation... The wallet in the fridge! The dirty dishes story! But at the same time, the haze of sleep deprivation isn't actually very funny in the moment, so go leave her encouraging comment love. ;P

Oh my gosh...I LOVE the frozen cereal prank and I'm totally getting the Cheerios out after I'm done commenting!!! I think I'll skip the head in the jar though. I'll be the one paying for it when they wake me up in the middle of the night from having nightmares...LOL! Thanks for hosting. I hope you have a fabulous weekend!!!
ReplyDeleteAwesome!! Did you really do it?? I want to hear how it went! ;P And yes, the head in the jar is pretty freaky!
DeleteFollowing all on Pinterest. Didn't see a tweet to share button, so I just copied the tweet into twitter and tweeted it.
ReplyDeleteWelcome Cathy! Thanks for sharing the party! :)
Deletethanks so much for the linky (and for the April Fools Day smiles!) I love visiting here with you girls xx
ReplyDeleteThank YOU for hanging out with us Leanne! ;)
DeleteAhhhh, the head in the jar!!!! So not cool! ;) Thank you so much for featuring my post! I am shocked that I function well enough to write a blog at all, LOL :)
ReplyDeleteSO not cool, I agree... And you write a remarkably fun and engaging blog for being so tired! ;P
DeleteThanks for the great April Fools Inspiration! Have a good weekend!
ReplyDeleteThanks for coming by Katie! :)
DeleteI wish I'd remembered about the eyes in the fridge thing! I always want to do that one here for April Fools day. I'd love to see the look on the kids' faces. haha
ReplyDeleteNext year! I printed the eyes because I didn't have any real googly eyes available, and that totally still worked...
DeleteThanks for hosting! Hope you have an amazing weekend :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Kelly! Glad to see you. :)
DeleteThanks for all of the great April 1 ideas! Love the frozen cereal and the googlie-eyes :) Wishing you a fantastic weekend!
ReplyDeleteThanks Jed! Hope you had a good weekend too!
DeleteHow fun is this. Way fun. Such great idea to play April fools jokes on those we love.
ReplyDeleteHave a fabulous day and weekend. ☺
Just silly random fun to change things up... I had a good time with it. ;P
DeleteHello Sarah Eliza,
ReplyDeletethank you for another great party!
many greetings
Uwe
Thanks for coming by Uwe!
DeleteI HAVE to remember the googly eyes on everything in the fridge! That would be perfect for Gv and me to do as a joke on G next year (she'd probably enjoy doing it today, but I'm just not up for it...) And you have to tell me how you shared those pins on here - send me a message with the directions, because I totally want to use that method in one of our upcoming #FridayFrivolity parties!
ReplyDeleteYes, definitely try it!! Very kid-friendly and fun. :)
DeleteI hate April Fools Day and refuse to celebrate it. I always feel bad for the person who was fooled, and I hate it happening to me lol.
ReplyDeleteThanks for hosting and Happy Weekend :)
Ahhhh I don't do any "mean" ones myself... I even hate the "brown Es" one because I feel like people would be so let down by the lack of actual brownies... but I don't mind the silly ones. :P
DeleteI just love the head in the jar! That is awesome! I'll have to put that one in my back pocket for next year. Thank you for hosting #FridayFrivolity!
ReplyDeleteAhahaha I'm glad you like it Regina! :) Thanks for coming by!
DeleteGoing to say that I am boring but I don't really do April Fools Day. I was taught in college that it started in the middle ages when the court jesters (those who were disabled-CP, Autism, etc) were allowed outside the castle one day a year-The Fools Day. Being a SPED teacher, I frown on it.
ReplyDeleteSorry to be a kill joy.
Oh yikes, that is an upsetting backstory. I understand your conscientious objections!
DeleteThank you for hosting this week!!
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend!
I love the frozen cereal idea, I've never seen that before! The witches fingers too! When we finally get around to trying the knot, we're thinking of having a halloween type reception party with lots of creepy food and costumes. :D #FridayFrivolity
ReplyDeleteOoooh that sounds like so much fun! I want to come celebrate your big day with you when it happens! :P
DeleteOh Sarah Eliza! Love all except the fingers- gross!!
ReplyDeleteFrozen cereal is genius!
My second grand was just born an hour ago, so can't link up, too much to do!
See ya next week hopefully!
