April Fool’s Day, though a well know holiday, often is forgotten because no one can think of a good prank! The best laid plans start early, so, to revive this mischievous tradition, here are some of the best pranks to pull next year.

The first prank is called the Dead Remote Prank. For this prank you will need a piece of tape, and a remote. Take your remote, and look for the sensor, it should be a little light on the short side of the remote. Once you find it, put a piece of tape over top of it. Now, the remote signal will not work when you try to use it. To go above and beyond, you can take the batteries out of the remote, so whoever you’re pranking has to remove the tape and find batteries for the remote.

In the next prank, you will need an Oreo cookie and some white toothpaste. Open up the Oreo and scrape the cream filling out. Then refill the cookie with toothpaste and you have a faux Oreo! Now, all that is left to do is to offer it to someone! This prank is super easy and super quick.

For the final prank, you will need 3 pieces of paper and a marker. In this prank, you will hide cards around your house and task your family with finding them. Fold the paper into cards and label them 1, 2, and 4. Then write a message on the inside of all the cards. Now, hide cards 2 and 4 in places where your family will find them after a few minutes of searching, and leave card 1 out in the open! With luck, the time they spend searching for card three will give you time to relax and take control of the television.

Hopefully these pranks get a laugh from your friends and families, have fun trying them out!
