These practical jokes are easy, fun—and a little bit wicked. (But they won't get you grounded, we hope.)
下面這些玩笑簡單有趣，可行度高，但是有點小小的邪惡哦（但愿你的爸爸媽媽不會因此讓你禁足）。

Turn your tap water weird colors
把水龍頭變成奇怪的顏色

Make your parents worry about the water quality with this harmless prank. Use a cotton swab to wipe gel food coloring around the rim of the faucet spout, right where the water comes out. (Choose red for a particularly spooky touch!) Then watch and wait for them to freak out when they fill up their glass.
用這個無害的惡作劇讓父母擔心一下水質(zhì)。用棉簽擦拭帶色的凝膠食物色素，涂到水龍頭出水處（用紅色來做一個可怕的效果?。┑戎窗职謰寢尳铀畷r的尖叫吧。

Swap the sugar and salt
互換糖和鹽

If your parents drink their coffee or tea with a touch of sugar, replace the sweetener in their sugar bowl with salt for a not-so-sweet surprise. (Note: Don't forget to replace it before you need a little sugar for your oatmeal!)
要是爸爸媽媽喝咖啡和茶的時候習慣放糖，把糖換成鹽，給他們一個不甜蜜的驚喜。（注意：自己喝燕麥片的時候別忘了把糖換回來！）

Power down the remotes
取出遙控器電源

Take the batteries out of every remote in the house to make it impossible to change the channel. (Bonus points if you switch the TV to your favorite channel before you shut it down.)
把家里所有遙控器的電池都拿出來，不能換臺。（加分點：在卸電池之前先調(diào)到自己最喜歡的頻道）

Seal off their shampoo
封住沐浴露

Get them into a lather in the shower by sealing off their shampoo, conditioner or body wash. To do this, unscrew the cap and place a small piece of plastic wrap over the bottle opening before you screw the lid back on. They'll have no idea why they can't get their cleaning products out.
封住沐浴露或關(guān)掉空凋，讓爸媽在淋浴中抓狂。首先把沐浴露蓋子打開，在瓶口處放一層保鮮膜，再擰好蓋子。父母倒不出沐浴露肯定會一臉蒙圈。

Turn everything upside down
把所有東西倒置

Sneak downstairs before your parents get up, and set all the small objects in the house (picture frames, clocks, books, and other doodads) upside down or backward. You can also turn jackets and other items inside out.
在爸媽醒來前偷偷下樓，把所有小物件（相框、鐘表、書和其他小裝飾物）都倒置或者反過來，夾克衫和其他衣物也可以翻過來哦。

Surprise them with a spider
用蜘蛛嚇他們

If one of your family members is freaked out about creepy crawlies, this April Fool's joke will definitely get a reaction. Unroll the toilet paper slightly, and draw a creepy spider a few sheets in with a marker. Roll it back up, and wait for your victim to get a surprise.
要是家里有人害怕爬行動物，那愚人節(jié)可有的玩了。輕輕打開廁紙，用馬克筆在內(nèi)部畫一只蜘蛛，再把廁紙卷回去，就等著當事人“驚喜”一下。

Create your own (fake) cracked screen
做一個假碎屏

If you have your own smartphone or tablet, you can really get your parents fooled by pretending your screen has been cracked. You can download images or even find online apps that will make your screen look like it's shattered. Your parents will totally be relieved when you scream "April Fool's."
如果有手機或平板，可以在網(wǎng)上下載碎屏圖片，假裝屏幕碎了，愚人節(jié)和父母開開玩笑，然后喊出“愚人節(jié)快樂”看父母松一口氣的樣子。

Switch out their underwear
互換內(nèi)衣

Make getting ready in the morning a little more challenging by switching the underwear from one person's drawers to another family member's. (It's especially funny if you put a kid's teeny pair of underwear into the biggest family member's dresser.)
早上準備點更挑戰(zhàn)性的事情?；Q家庭成員的內(nèi)衣（把小朋友的內(nèi)衣放到大人的衣櫥里會特別好玩。）

Tinker with their drinks
給飲料添彩

There are a few different ways you can bring a little April Fool's fun to your drinks. Try hiding a little food coloring beneath some ice cubes—so when you pour in water or another drink, you'll get a colorful beverage. Or create a creepy ice cube by freezing a plastic bug into an ice cube, and slipping it into their drink.
在飲料方面還可以做一些愚人節(jié)玩笑。在冰塊下藏一點食物色素，加水或飲料的時候就會得到一杯有色飲料。或者冷凍一直塑料蟲，做一個爬行冰塊，把冰塊放到爸媽杯子里。

Upgrade your framed photos
更新照片

Looking for a more subtle prank to pull on your parents? Print out (or snip out) pictures of your favorite characters or cartoons, and replace your family photos with these silly shots. (Let's see how long it takes for your parents to see that Harry Potter has replaced you in the portrait.)
想和父母開一個不那么明顯的玩笑？把最喜歡的角色或動漫打印出來，放到所有蠢蠢的家庭合影上（可以期待一下爸媽要花多長時間才能發(fā)現(xiàn)哈利波特替代了照片中的你）。

Help them learn a new language
教爸媽一門新的語言

Swap the settings on the TV or their phone so they see everything in Spanish or French instead of English. (Then maybe they can help you with your language homework too!)
更改電視或手機設置，這樣他們一打開手機就能看到西班牙語或法語，而不是英語。（這也許能幫你完成語言作業(yè)?。?/div>

Make a splash
做個水花

This one is an oldie, but a goodie: Use a rubber band on the sink sprayer handle to keep it pressed down. When the next unsuspecting person goes to turn on the faucet, your prank will make a big splash as the sprayer soaks them.
這個招式比較老套，也不夠精品：用橡皮筋把水龍頭壓低，有不知情的人開水龍頭時，水就會四濺開。

Create a sticky situation
制造棘手問題

If your parents constantly ask you to replace the roll of toilet paper, here's the perfect opportunity to do it—but with something funny. Put a roll of duck tape on the holder instead of toilet paper.
如果爸媽經(jīng)常讓你換廁紙，絕佳機會來了，我們要換個有趣的東西。放一卷布基膠帶在廁紙的位置。

Stop the mouse in its tracks
讓鼠標停下來

Stick a Post-It or a piece of clear tape over the tracking ball on the computer mouse to keep it from moving. Watch your parents' confusion as they try to figure out why their computer's on the fritz.
在鼠標的滑動小球上貼便利貼或者透明膠，讓鼠標無法移動。觀察爸媽疑惑電腦是不是出了問題的表情。
