in the spirit of April fools day, I thought i would share some of our family shananigans with you. My wife and I are proud parents of three BOYS, ages 6,7, and 9. Last year, while they were all getting dressed for school DW convinced all three boys that it was National Underwear Awareness Day and that school sent home a memo saying to wear your clean underwear on the outside of the pants. Some documentation was provided to curb any hesitation. Pictures were taken and it was hilarious when she broke the news of April fools day. At the time they were 5,6, and 8 yrs old.
.
The past couple of birthday parties we have taken the boys to have had "cake pops" instead of birthday cake. These are small amounts of cake with icing on the end of a lolipop stick. This year DW made cake pops but instead of cake on the inside she put icing on mild shallots as an after school snack. Stay tuned.....

Slow and steady wins the.... wait a second! I've been lied to!
thanks Happylily.
And yes they get their revenge on a regular basis.
It worked well. The little one took a bite and didnt notice until the second bite. He siad "whats that smell?". The oldest figured it out on the first bite and remained quiet to see his brothers' reaction.

Smart kid.
In the words of my late-coach : Just hang in there, relax... and at the end of a race anyone you see.....just pass them
Very nice, evil, but nice!!!

iwish I could post the video she took of their reaction as they ate them. Hilarious.
Drink up moho's!!
Don't screw with your kids too badly for some day they will pick your retirement home.
And just think what that wise young man (your oldest - who wanted to see his brothers' reactions) is already planning for next year ... for all of you!

Those pranks are exactly something my dad would have done to my brother and I as kids!!! He used to go all out for April Fools Day. Once he stayed up all night and glued a whole roll of toilet paper together, strung a whole box of Cheerios together so wheb you went to pour out a little the whole box dumped out as one giant necklace, laced my OJ with hotsauce, short sheeted the bed, ect! We survived into adulthood unscathed
