April 1st CAN be terrific and COLORFUL

Besides April 1st be the day I got engaged (try explaining that one on April 1st! ha! no one believed me!!)  April Fools Day is a fun day to make these pop top surprises.  This is about my level of ability for April 1st!  
Use a mini fruit can, the size the kids take in their lunches- you can leave the label on and they will think they are opening a can of fruit cocktail!  Come Together Kids has a great photo tutorial for the ones she made.  Not So Idle Hands found pop top cans of several different sized cans.
Fill them with your kids favorite treats and wait for the lunch report after school!
 Thanks for sharing  Laura and  Emily.


So her is another idea, this one's from Martha
I can see pink and green in the bathrooms, and blue in the kitchen.  It would be funny to have all of the sinks different! -  or the toilets! (Put it in the tank and wait till morning to flush...be sure to be standing outside the door for the reaction!)
Turn the kitchen sink into a blue lagoon with nontoxic dye pellets, designed to tint children's bathwater. Unscrew the cap on the faucet, and set a couple of the colored tabs inside before replacing it. When the water is turned on, the burst of color will be short-lived yet shocking."
