April Fools’ Day prank: Juice or jelly?

April starts with a laugh and a giggle thanks to April Fools' Day! What better way to begin a new month than with some fun practical jokes? This one is a clever prank that will trick the kids!

What you need:

• clear cups
• jelly
• straws

Number of players:

Activity:

Prepare this prank the night before to ensure it sets in time.

Make jelly as per instructions, pour into cups and place a straw into each of the jelly cups to mimic a drink.

Pop them in the fridge overnight for best results.

In the morning, get the kids a jelly drink from the fridge and place it carefully on the table. To really sell the jelly as a drink, make sure you walk cautiously with it across the kitchen.

Watch as the kids try to drink and nothing comes up the straw. They will realise they have been tricked and the war will begin.

Happy April Fools' Day!
