What are the customs of April Fool's day?

It's April Fool's day tomorrow. Are you ready to 'straighten up' or wait for 'being straightened out'.

On April Fool's day, people often organize family gatherings and decorate their rooms with daffodils and daisies. The typical traditional way is to decorate a fake environment, which can make the room look like Christmas. It can also be arranged like new year. When guests come, they will be congratulated on "Merry Christmas" or "Happy New Year", which makes people feel unique and interesting.

Fish feast on April 1st. It's a different story. The invitation to the fish feast is usually a small colorful fish made of cardboard. The dining table is decorated with green and white. In the middle is a fish tank and a small and exquisite fishing rod. Each fishing rod is tied with a green ribbon, with a gift for the guests or a delicate celluloid fish or a fish basket filled with candy. It goes without saying that all the dishes at the fish feast are made of fish.

At the April Fool's Day party, there is also a custom of cooking fake dishes. Someone once described a typical April Fool's Day recipe: first, a 'salad'. Lettuce leaves are sprinkled with green pepper, but after the leaves are uncovered, it turns out that the oyster cocktail is underneath; the second dish is baked potato, in fact, the sweet bread crumbs and fresh mushrooms are underneath; then the dishes on the menu include roast chicken with crab meat as camouflage and raspberry ice cream buried under tomato salad. After dinner, guests can also take candy from the pill box.

However, the most typical activity of April Fool's Day is to joke with each other and make fun of each other with lies. Some people leave their wallets on the street tied by thin wires and pull the other end of the wires in the dark. Once someone picked up the wallet, they suddenly took it away. Others put bricks under their broken hats in the middle of the road and waited to see who would kick them. Children will tell their parents that they have a hole in their schoolbag or a black spot on their face. When adults look down, they will shout 'April Fool'. Running away laughing. In short, every April Fool's day, zoos and aquariums will receive many calls to Mr. fish, Mr. tiger, and often make staff cut off the phone line in order to reduce trouble.
