April Fool’s Day

April fools is the first day of April, as a day when people play practical jokes and hoaxes on each other. It is a western tradition. It has been celebrated since the middle ages. April Fools' Day, sometimes called All Fools' Day, is one of the most light-hearted days of the year. Its origins are undefined. Some see it as a celebration connected to the turn of the seasons, while others believe it stems from the adoption of a new calendar. Ancient cultures, including those of the Romans and Hindus, celebrated New Year's Day on or around April 1. It strictly follows the vernal equinox (March 20th or March 21st.) In medieval times, much of Europe celebrated March 25, the Feast of Annunciation, as the start of the New Year. It is fun to do but has a certain limit because anyone can get hurt. People enjoy this day and have a great day fooling others.
