Springy April Fools!

Reader

[ezcol_1half] March is like a teaser month, why bother telling us that it’s spring in March? I mean really, spring runs from mid-March to mid-June anyways so what’s the harm in just waiting till April when it really does feel like spring to spring it on us that it’s spring? Of course if you live in the southern states, signs of spring appear before the middle of March, but they don’t call it spring, they call it ‘Sprang’ hahaha!

It doesn’t surprise me that a lot of people don’t even know it’s the first day of spring when you tell them; it’s usually really cold, wet and nasty outside. From now on I think when I tell them it’s the first day of spring I’ll then say; “Springy Fool’s”! Heh-heh!

Regardless, I’m happy that April is near. One of my favorite holidays is in April, April Fool’s Day! Having a deep, cavernous mind, Frerauby and Mrcah leave me a ltlite mdudle hedaed, I’m dnoe wtih wietnr by the end of Jaurnay, and those two months jsut seem to darg on and on mnikag my delicate mnid go hwiarye and jumlbe evernytihg up in the cenvars, lkie the stalagmites and stalactites get all miexd up and I don’t konw wchih way is up or dwon tlil tehy psas!

April Fool’s Day is a nice distraction, a very much needed distraction, to put the caverns back in order! It actually surprised me to find out that this day of foolery is thousands of years old! I’m not kidding! Something about fools running the kingdom for a day, a tradition still in practice today only in years!

I think we should combine the two Fools days into one long holiday, Springy April Fools Days! Why should we only get one day to be foolish, let’s have eleven of them!

Pulling pranks on people is fun and I don’t pretend to only keep that tradition alive one[/ezcol_1half] day out of the year, so eleven of them would be much better! Kids are the best subjects for April Fool’s pranks and there’s some night before preparations to make!

First off if they are heavy sleepers, put them in a different bed once they are asleep so they’ll wake up in the wrong bed, then be sure to sprinkle a little salt on their toothbrushes, fill the hair dryer with baby powder and switch the bagged cereal within their boxes and glue the lid down to the milk jug!

Now in the morning they’ll go to the kitchen all confused from waking up in the wrong bed and start the onslaught! After they get past the cereal boxes and milk jug they’ll get a nice surprise when rinsing their bowls out because you put a rubber band around the sprayer handle on the kitchen sink into the “on” position!

Follow them as they head to their room to change clothes with some water cupped in your hand and pretend to sneeze on the back of their head, (my favorite), and while they’re drying their hair with the loaded hair dryer and salting their teeth be sure to stuff a little toilet paper in the toes of their shoes… they will never forget you!

Geezers are fun to prank too, dip the tips of their straws in Orajel so their lips will go numb, and bring multiple sets of clothes to change into every time you go to the bathroom and act like nothing’s different, they’ll think you've visited them several times in the same day! Hahaha!

Happy Springy April Fools Days!
