April Fools' Day: Fun and Pranks

April Fools' Day, celebrated on April 1st, is a day when people around the world play pranks and jokes on each other. The tradition has been around for centuries, although its exact origins are unclear. Some believe it started in France in 1564 when the calendar changed, while others think it might be related to spring weather changes.

Different countries have their own ways of celebrating. In France, it's called 'April Fish' day, where children stick paper fish on people's backs. Scotland celebrates for two days, with the second day involving physical pranks. In the United States, people often yell 'April Fools!' after their joke is revealed.

Even famous people and companies participate. First Lady Jill Biden once pretended to be a flight attendant, and Google often announces fake products. The day is all about having fun and not taking things too seriously.
