If you like playing tricks on people, but you like to wait until April fools day to keep things ‘legal’, this article is for you. For those who don’t like pranks: Read this article to learn the things you should avoid on this day.
The Bored Badger website found 13 pretty harmless, but funny jokes that you can do at home, between friends, or even at work.
1. Caramel shower
For this joke, you will need some hard caramel candy. When your ‘victim’ is still sleeping, unscrew the shower head, put some candies in there and then place the shower head back. But, please, don’t do this trick if you know the person is allergic to caramel.

2. Surprise caramel apples
It is difficult to differentiate onions from apples at first glance, especially if they are covered with caramel sauce. This is why you should avoid caramel apples on April 1st. However, if you want to make these yourself, enjoy people’s reaction!

3. Office aquarium
Has your colleague ever dreamed of having an aquarium? Make their dream a reality: wrap your colleague’s desk drawer with some waterproof plastic, place some rocks at the bottom, add water, some fishbowl accessories and even add a fish…as long as you are ready to take care of it afterward.

4. Exploding cake
No explosives needed. For this cake, you will need an empty cereal box, a balloon, tape, and a large amount of whipped cream or icing. Make a cake with these ingredients and ask your ‘victim’ to cut themselves a piece of cake.

5. Mayonnaise donuts
If your roommates like to steal your food, April Fool’s day is the best day to discourage them from this annoying habit. Buy a box of donuts with holes in them but that doesn’t have any filling inside yet, and a mayonnaise pot, then use a plastic bag or a baking bag to fill them with the mayonnaise.

6. A can that will never open
Treat your friend to a can of soda but turn the tab so they can’t open it before giving it to them. An attentive person will notice right away, but isn’t this so funny?

7. Fake money
Cut a corner of a banknote (you can use fake money from a game like Monopoly instead of ruining your real money), attach a funny image or a funny message, place it in a book and hide so you can observe the funny scene. Someone will be disappointed!

8. Fake spider
Most people are scared of these creatures, so buying special toilet paper with an image of a realistic spider on it will most probably scare the person at the toilet.

9. A nightmare on the ceiling
Using the suspended ceiling at the office is an excellent way of scaring your colleagues. Replace one of the squares from the ceiling with a scary image from the movie The Ring or The Grudge and wait until you ‘victims’ scream their lungs out…or beat you up.

10. Voice control toaster
Stick a note on the toaster at your work cafeteria that says ‘voice-controlled’ and has fun watching people get angry with this bad technology.

11. A chair for the busiest person in your office
If you have a spare toilet hanging around and if one of your colleagues always complains they don’t have enough time in the day to do anything, this joke is perfect for them. Don’t forget details like toilet paper, an air freshener, and a toilet brush.

12. An unusable toilet
Finally, this is one of the most classic ‘toilet pranks’ that you can try at your own peril. To do this, you will need some clear plastic wrap and of course a toilet. Raise the toilet seat, wrap the bowl with some plastic wrap, and then put back the seat. Wait for the most unattentive ‘victim’ you can find and be ready to clean up the mess afterward.
