April Fools’ Day—some kids love it. Some hate being the target of practical joiks. Silly pranks, harmless jokes, a little fun. But let’s be honest… sometimes it crosses the line. So how do we guide our kids? First—laughter is a gift from God, but not at someone else’s expense. Proverbs says a fool enjoys causing trouble, but wise people speak with kindness. Let’s teach our kids that fun should never be cruel, deceitful, or ungodly. A silly joke? Sure. But lies or hurtful humor? That’s not Christlike. Remind them: we represent Jesus—even on April Fools' Day. So laugh a little—but lead with love.
