35 Awesome & Harmless but Easy April Fools Pranks Ideas
April Fool’s Day is one of the best days of the year. On no other day are you “legally” allowed to play jokes and pranks on your friends, family and co-workers and have a built-in excuse. Here are 35 pranks you can play on people with very little effort, yet still reap much joy out of the end results.
Salty Toothpaste
Sprinkle some salt on your victim's toothbrush. When this person goes to brush their teeth, he or she will get a salty tasted treat.
Wax paper+nail polish+workaholic=awesome(: Take wax paper and some nail polish you don't use anymore, pour the nail polish onto the wax paper and wait till it hardens, peel it off and lay it on an important document, it looks like you spilled it everywhere(: Your workaholic parents will FREAK OUT.
Rubber band+kitchen spray nozzel+poor family member=funny(: Wrap a rubber band around the handle on your spray nozzel in the kitchen, wait till someone turns on the facet and it sprays in their face!
Seran Rap+toilet+dad=messy! Wrap clear sticky seran wrap around the toilet opening, TIGHTLY or it will have little ripples and he'll notice. When he pees, well, you know(: put a note on the toilet seat, april fools(;
Computer mouse+sticky note=aggravating: Take a sticky note and tape it under your mouse where the little light is, write April Fools on it and watch whoever gets on the computer, the cursor wont move(:
put tape on the sink spray nozel. when your dad turns on the sink he will get sprayed.... i do that one every year :)
Koolaid+Shower head+red water=FUN! Take a packet of powder koolaid and unscrew the shower head, pack the powder into the shower head and watch as a person takes their shower, theyll get prayed with red water for awhile(:
Bathroom+gotta pee=annoyed(: Stay in the bathroom for a while, knowing your family member needs to go REAL bad, make sure the toilet paper is all used up and there no more in the cabinet, the person who runs in wont notice till its too late(:
Shower+no clothes=OH MY GOD! While someone takes a shower, get all their clothes, towels, rugs, and anything they can cover themselves with outta the bathroom. When they get out theyll be stuck for quite a while(:
Quarter+Pencil+skill=Hilarious. Take a quarter and practice getting it to roll along your forehead, over your nose, and to your chin. Color the quarter with the pencil after you have perfected it, take another quarter and challenge your sister or brother or friend, show them you can do it (with the clean quarter) and give them the colored quarter, thell attempt to do it and eventually get it right, when they do, congratulate them and walk away. Wait for him or her to find out he or she has a bunch of black pencil lines all over their face(:
Stuck In The Bathroom
Remove the bathroom door knob and put it back on the reverse way so the lock is on the outside. Then push the button or turn to lock the door. Remember to leave the door open. Now, whoever is next to use the bathroom, will not even notice this and he will lock himself inside.
Shower Before Entering
If you know someone who turns on the shower before actually entering the tub area. Then before their next shower, turn the shower-head so it faces outside the shower area. Most people don't even look up before turning the nozzle.
Shampoo Shower Prank
Glue a bottle of shampoo to the shower shelf (to avoid damage, use clear caulk on a surface that can be scraped).
Bar Of Soap Lather Prank
Take some nail polish and coat a bar of soap with it. Let it dry. Then put it in the bathroom shower. When your victim tries to use it, he or she will go nuts trying to get it to lather up.
Unable To Open
Glue all the bottles of shampoo shut so they cannot be opened.
Terrible Aim
Sprinkle some water with yellow food coloring all over the toilet seat and floor. It will look like whoever used the toilet before you was a terrible aimer.
Cream Cheese Deodorant
Scrape off about an inch or so of your victim's deodorant and replace it with cream cheese. It will take a few minutes to sculpt the cheese in place to look like the deodorant. When finished, put the lid back on and back where you found the deodorant. When your victim needs to freshen up again, he will get a cream cheese surprise
Food Coloring In Hand Soap Dispenser
Put some food coloring inside the hand soap dispenser. When your victim tries to wash his hands, they will end up worse than before he decided to wash them.
Urinate Forever
Impress a buddy who is in a room next to the bathroom. Excuse yourself to go to the bathroom, but along the way get a large bucket with water and take it in with you. Then slowly pour it in the toilet. It will take forever to finish pouring it all in. Your buddy in the room next door will say, "WOW" as he will think you are taking a very very long pee.
So Forgetful
Tape some magnets to the bottom of a cup and the top of your car and drive away. It will look like you forgot to grab your cup off the top before driving off and people all around will try and get your attention and flag you down, while you just laugh and drive.
Cruelty To Animals
Attach a leash to the rear bumper of your victim's car. When he drives away, other cars driving behind him will think he forgot about his pet that he tied to the bumper.
Change Automobile Settings
While your victim is away from his car, go inside and turn stereo volume to max, turn windsheild wipers on, air conditioner to max, scoot seats all the way up and adjust mirrors.
Wrong Keys
Next time you are with a group of friends and two of your friends have the same type of car...for example both friends have a Volkswagon. Then chances are both Volkswagon keys will look identical. When both of your friends aren't looking...switch their keys.
Jack Up The Car
Jack up a persons car so the wheels are just barely off the ground, but not enough to be noticable.
Styrofoam Peanuts
Fill your victim's car with styrofoam peanuts then ask him to go to the store for you.
Bad Cop, No Donut!
You can usually find a bumper sticker at any Novelty Store that reads, "Bad Cop, No Donut!" If you can't find one, you can just make one yourself. Place it on your bumper and everytime you see a cop. Just drive in front of him. You might want to reduce your speed a bit to make sure he reads it.
Pop!
Put a balloon over the hole of the victim's exhaust pipe. After he drives away...a few blocks later, he will hear a big POP!!
I Ran Over My Arm
Place a fake rubber or plastic arm under your tire after you park your car. Add a small puddle of fake blood. Then hide one of your arms. When people ask what happened, tell them the car brakes weren't working
Sorry About The Damage!
Leave a fake note on someone's car windsheild that reads, "Sorry about the damage i caused to your automobile. Call me and I will be more than happy to pay for the repair" Be sure not to leave a phone number...of course there is no real damage. But the victim doesn't know this. He or she will look all over for a dent or scratch or something.
Move The Car
When your victim isn't paying attention. Get his keys and move his car. If he parked out in the street next to the curb. Then just turn the car around so it is now parked the wrong way.
Tire Blowout
Place a blown up balloon under your victim's tire. When he starts the car up and drives off, he will hear a loud POP!! and think the tire just blew out!
Fight+ketchup+sister=FREAK OUT! Challenge your sister to a fight, trip her or punch her or something and let her get your back, hide a glob of ketchup or red food coloring in your other hand and smear it on your self where she hit you while your on the ground away from her, shell freak out when she comes over.
Butter+clumsy=Laughable. Rub butter or margarine around the floor, leave a note somewhere nearby that says ''Ill clean it up'' and wait for someone to walk by, theyll read the note and walk forward, slipping on the butter and falling.
Car+little stickers=confused. Get those little sticky things for the windows, put a whole bunch of them all over your parents or your sisters car and watch as they try to remember how they got there.
If your a mischievous person, and your parents think you'll do something for April Fools day, buy them some flowers, chocolate, etc. and don't do anything. Just sit back and watch as your parents anticipate something. Its really funny

If you want to impress a stranger, here are the body language mistakes to avoid
One way we can “hack” this split-second judgement is to be aware of our body language, especially in important situations. Whether you’re applying for a job, asking for a raise, or meeting with a new client, tweaking or just being mindful of our body language can influence the other person’s perception of us and the outcome of the situation.
15 Body language blunders to watch out for:
- Leaning back too much—you come off lazy or arrogant.
- Leaning forward—can seem aggressive. Aim for a neutral posture.
- Breaking eye contact too soon—can make you seem untrustworthy or overly nervous. Hold eye contact a hair longer, especially during a handshake.
- Nodding too much—can make you look like a bobble head doll! Even if you agree with what’s being said, nod once and then try to remain still.
- Chopping or pointing with your hands—feels aggressive.
- Crossing your arms—makes you look defensive, especially when you’re answering questions. Try to keep your arms at your sides.
- Fidgeting—instantly telegraphs how nervous you are. Avoid it at all costs.
- Holding your hands behind your back (or firmly in your pockets)—can look rigid and stiff. Aim for a natural, hands at your sides posture.
- Looking up or looking around—is a natural cue that someone is lying or not being themselves. Try to hold steady eye contact.
- Staring—can be interpreted as aggressive. There’s a fine line between holding someone’s gaze and staring them down.
- Failing to smile—can make people uncomfortable, and wonder if you really want to be there. Go for a genuine smile especially when meeting someone for the first time.
- Stepping back when you’re asking for a decision—conveys fear or uncertainty. Stand your ground, or even take a slight step forward with conviction.
- Steepling your fingers or holding palms up—looks like a begging position and conveys weakness.
- Standing with hands on hips—is an aggressive posture, like a bird or a dog puffing themselves up to look bigger.
- Checking your phone or watch—says you want to be somewhere else. Plus, it’s just bad manners.
So, what should you do? Aim for good posture in a neutral position, whether sitting or standing. Stand with your arms at your sides, and sit with them at your sides or with your hands in your lap. Pay attention so that you naturally hold eye contact, smile, and be yourself.
If you discover you have a particular problem with one or two of the gestures on the list, practice by yourself with a mirror or with a friend who can remind you every time you do it, until you become aware of the bad habit yourself.
12 Most Life-Changing Beauty Hacks Ever
Looking gorgeous and smelling incredible have never been more foolproof

1. For better grip, flip the bobby pin over so the wavy side is against your head.
If you have a hard time keeping your bobby pins in place, try flipping the pin over. The straight side is slicker and won't grip as well as the wavy, more textured side.

2. Insert bobby pins into your ponytail holder vertically to prop up your ponytail.
Once you've put your hair in a ponytail, insert two or three bobby pins halfway inside the elastic and facing downward toward the crown of your head. Then, fluff your ponytail and flip it over for a fuller look that won't sag or droop.

3. Texturize milkmaid braids with a teasing brush or toothbrush.
French maid braids look best when they're roughed up a little to achieve that lived-in look. To get that effect instantly, take a teasing brush or a toothbrush, and texturize the braids by brushing them against the way they've been braided.

4. Twist your hair, and slip your bobby pin underneath to discreetly pin back your strands.
If you're looking for a way to pull back the sides of your hair but don't want the pins to show, try this simple technique: Insert a bobby pin with the open end pointing toward your face and in the opposite direction of the section you're pinning back. If one bobby pin isn't strong enough, try using a larger one or reinforce it with a second pin right below.

5. Dust an eyeshadow (in the same color family as your hair) along your part to shade your scalp slightly, making your hair appear thicker.
Not only will this trick work IRL, but in pictures your hair will appear super-thick. You can also use this hack along your hairline if you wear it in a ponytail a lot or simply don't like to part your hair to get the same results.

6. Use a concealer that's slightly lighter than your skin tone to line three tiny sections of your eyes: the inner "V," the middle section of your eyelid, and just below your brow bone.
Lightly blend for instantly well-rested eyes and a highlight that looks natural. Great for days when you didn't get enough sleep.

7. Amp up your going-out makeup by contouring and highlighting your facial features with two concealers: one two shades darker than your skin tone and one two shades lighter.
If you're using pencil concealers, you have more control of the placement, which makes contouring easy. Just draw the lighter shade of concealer on the areas that naturally catch light, and use a darker one to shade in the areas that are naturally shaded. Then, blend with a buffing brush like this one from Tarte Cosmetics.

8. Fix foundation stains with a little bit of shaving cream.
If you take off your shirt and accidentally smudge your makeup on the collar, just wipe a dollop of shaving cream on the spot to pretreat it before tossing it in the wash.

9. Turn a pencil eyeliner into a gel formula with the help of a match.
Hold your black, green, burgundy, etc., kohl eye pencil (which typically creates a thin, harder-to-apply line), under the flame for one second, let it cool for 15 seconds, and then watch the consistency change right before your eyes. Glide on your newly made gel liner for an instantly smudgier formula.

10. Use the handle and the rounded edge of a spoon to create the perfect winged liner.
Hold the handle of a spoon against the outer corner of your eye, and draw a straight line. Then, flip the spoon so it's hugging your eyelid, and use the rounded outer edge to create a perfectly curved, winged tip. After you've made your outline, fill it in, and draw a line across your lashline to finish the look.

11. Dust baby powder over your eyelashes between the first and second coats of mascara to plump up your lashes.
Translucent powder or baby powder has grip, so it will stick to your lashes in between each coat of mascara, making your lashes appear more voluminous.

12. Get the perfect smoky eye by drawing a hashtag on the outer corner of your eyelid and smudging it out with the sponge.
Keep drawing hashtags and smudging it out to get a darker, smokier look.

Place the edge of the tape in line with your bottom lash line and angle the top toward the end of your eyebrow.
