April Fun Day

Today is April Fool’s Day. I don’t like the name because I don’t ever want anyone to be called a fool. I would like to rename it April Fun Day. I sure like to play silly games and have fun on this day. My youngest granddaughter and I have been planning for this day for weeks. Tonight family and friends will gather at my home while we tell a silly fun story in which everyone gets to participate. It’s really silly. We have a bunch of gags we will be using including a fake “cockroach” which my granddaughter named “Dr. Fivestein.” It was great fun thinking up names for the different characters in our little homegrown skit.

Planning fun family or school classroom special gatherings are bonding. Having everyone participate in some way, whether large or small, is bonding. It fosters community while creating memories that last a lifetime.

Have a great April Fun Day. You are a difference maker.
