A blue breakfast? Who would not laugh at this harmless April Fools' Day joke?

All you have to do is add a few drops of food colouring to the carton of milk.

Get the kids to pour cereal into their own bowl and allow them to pour their own milk, too.

Watch as they pour blue milk – they will be puzzled as to why!

Happy April Fools' Day, kids!
