What is April Fool’s Day?
No one knows when April Fool's Day started exactly. Some say it started in France in the 16th century, when New Year's Day was moved from April 1 to January 1, and those who continued to celebrate on April 1 were mocked as "April Fools". Though it was mentioned in writings as early as 1561, when a Flemish poem by Eduard de Dene describes a nobleman sending his servant on foolish errands on April 1st. Regardless, it’s become an annual tradition to play practical jokes on friends, family, and loved ones on the very first day of April. People will deceive each other for amusement, then reveal the joke once it’s been done by yelling, "April Fools!”.
