Origin Of April Fools Day


During the reign of Charles IX,
New Year was moved to 1st

Many people did not receive

continued to celebrate on 1st
April.
Tricks were played on such
people.

into a tradition of April Fools

Buy a bunch of googly eyes


from a craft store and stick
them everywhere all over a

Take an item from the victim's

item and leave it on the
victim's desk along with a
"ransom" note.

Tease your food crazy friends


by creating a poster of banned
food products and
write in the
