I have had my Easter thinking cap on lately (I’m sure I’m not the only one). But something I ran across today reminded me that April Fool’s Day is quickly approaching as well! I always love to plan some fun pranks to play on the kids. What kid wouldn’t get a kick out of googly eyes in the fridge, or fake food, or colorful drinks? If you are a teacher, there couldn’t be a better surprise to plan for your class! They’ll think you’re the absolutely coolest teacher ever if you play any of these 15 fantastic April Fools Day pranks on them!
Donut Box Veggie Tray from Design Dazzle- this is definitely one of my favorites! Your class would go crazy over this.

I’m a high school teacher that was googling Halloween pranks when I came across this this great article and website. Great ideas to prank teachers. I’m the teacher that’s been around so long that my home address is handed down from class to class. As a quasi-secret tradition, my house and car are pranked on Halloween. At first I tried to stop it, but later I decided to embrace it as a teaching aid to the underprivileged students I have in this rough area. The kids love to write essays on subjects such as, “How to Toilet Paper a House” and “Miss Debbie’s Red Mustang.” Those kids are quite creative, but at least I force them to use proper grammar in their writings. lol. Now we have a new, young gym teacher that half the school has a crush on. I’m looking for ideas to maybe divert the kids’ attention to her lovely vintage bungalow in the ‘hood near the school and, more importantly, to her sexy 2021 blue Camaro sitting helplessly behind her house near the unlighted alley. Rumor has it that the young teacher just wrapped her racy style wheels with some sticky, new, expensive performance rubber. At least that’s the rumor I’m spreading, along with HER address, in a very covert manner. Giggle. I’m so bad. 😉 Debbie
