It is a day when people are allowed to play pranks or practical jokes on their friends, family members and colleagues. The pranks played on April Fools' Day can range from harmless jokes to more elaborately planned hoaxes. The origins of this tradition are unclear, but it is believed to have started in Europe in the Middle Ages.
