Day of
Jokes
An
April Fools joke happens on 1st April. On that day there
are often false stories in the newspapers and on the
television and radio.
The BBC produced a spoof April Fools' documentary about 'spaghetti
trees', while
Burger King introduced a left-handed burger. And a
famous astronomer made a very strange radio announcement
about gravity on April 1.
In most countries April Fools jokes usually happen before
midday. In France, for example, you have 'April Fish'.
Children try to secretly pin paper fish on to each other.
Nobody knows how April Fools Day started. Perhaps it was to
celebrate the start of spring.
