This hilariously simple April Fool's Day prank can be played both at work and home. If your co-worker leaves their coffee mug lying around, invest in a lock and key and enjoy the ensuing scene! It's the perfect crime.
Cling wrap everything
This is a great prank that's easy to execute and doesn't leave a big mess. Simply get a roll of cling wrap and use it to wrap up something - a toilet seat at home, a door, your colleague's desktop... It's an April Fool's Day prank that's funny without causing any harms, so a win-win!
Sticky situation
Another office prank, though you can also try it a home. It's a great way to avoid work on April Fool's Day, if only for as long as it takes to remove all the post-its! If you're feeling ambitious, you can even try covering a whole car with sticky notes.
Donuts vs veggies
Nothing worse than expecting a sweet treat... and getting veggies instead. This prank may take a little bit of effort, but it will be worth it!
The No Prank
Finally, if you don't want to spend a lot of time planning your April Fools Day prank but still want a few laughs, try this: Take a box of sweets to office, stick a note on it saying 'Happy April Fool's Day', and then wait and watch as everyone tries to figure out what's wrong with it! Simple, no-fuss and hilarious.
