April Fool’s Day, also
called All Fool’s Day, is celebrated annually by different cultures around the
world on April 1st. While the celebration may be different for each
culture, the common theme includes playing hoaxes or practical jokes on others, often
yelling “April Fools!” afterward to signify the April Fool’s Day prank.
I never really thought about how April Fool’s Day came
into existence until I began researching it for this blog. The
origins of April Fool’s Day remain a mystery, but many theories exist.
Some theories say it dates
back to the 1500s in various countries where people were told about different
events happening and they would travel to see the event, but it didn’t exist.
This was known as a “fool’s errand.”
