April Fool's Day is celebrated on 1st April. It is also called All Fool's Day. The beginning of this tradition was in France in 1582. Nowadays, it is celebrated simultaneously in several countries. Moreover, it coincides with the first day of spring.
April Fool's Day is a "for-fun-only" observance. People don’t buy gifts or to take their family members out to eat in a restaurant. Nobody gets off work or school. It's simply a fun little holiday, but a holiday on which one must remain forever vigilant.
Jokes are a common practice on April Fool's Day. Sometimes, jokes are played on friends or relatives that last the entire day. April Fools' tricks include putting salt in sugar bowls and sugar in salt shakers, putting toothpaste between two slices of bread,getting up during the night and setting every clock in the house ahead one hour. In France, children put a picture of a fish on their friends’ backs.When the friends discover the fish, the children call them « poison d’Avril » ( April Fish)
