There is no shortage of practical jokes or japes you can play on your dearie for making fun of him.

But when looking for that chef’s kiss on your plans, then this list is curated for you.

1. You’re fired

If you have your boyfriend’s boss’s number and you are friends with them, you both can plan it quite perfectly. An April Fool’s Day prank will be an amusement for you and their boss, but your boyfriend might not enjoy it initially.

2. When are we adopting?

If he dislikes a particular animal, it will irk him quite a bit in the beginning. Tell him you went to your local shelter and could not help but adopt an animal. You can also show him pictures to see his reaction. Try hoaxing your boyfriend with this harmless prank and enjoy his reaction when he realizes it’s all in good fun.

Do not stretch the joke too much. Do it for fun, and if you see your boyfriend losing his temper, give away the truth before the situation gets out of hand.

3. Oh no! How did that spill all over?

How about fooling him by creating a fake spill on his laptop or his favorite rug? Take some white glue and use color to resemble the spill. For instance, use red to resemble a spilled-over nail polish bottle and brown for coffee. Then take your chosen dish and turn it over to wax or a plastic surface so that it dries out completely. Carefully lift it and place it on the rug or a laptop to make it seem like something has spilled over.

4. Tweak the favorite dish

If he has got a favorite food, it is time to change up the ingredients. Tell them you have got their favorite dish on the menu for lunch, and then proceed to make it by swapping a couple of the ingredients. It is important to remember the presentation because it will make or break your whole idea of this prank. Have fun by humoring your boyfriend with this mischievous prank that he won’t see coming. When he tries to eat it, record his reaction.

5. Fitness journey

If your boyfriend loves to snack and has a bunch of favorite snacks stored in the kitchen cupboard, swap them with something that they despise. Tell them that you are on your “fitness journey” and throwing out unhealthy snacks.

6. Car crash

If your boyfriend treasures his car more than the rest of his things, then this prank is the one. Tell them that you want to go for a grocery run and your car is at the service center. Take your time, borrow his car, and hide your car where they wouldn’t spot it in plain sight. Go to your boyfriend directly in a frenzied manner and tell him you have crashed the car. Try and find an old steering wheel from a scrap yard and show it to him. Enjoy the fun.

7. Wakey-wakey

Change each of the clocks to a couple of hours early and start your morning routine without any hesitation. Adjust the clocks to 4 or 5 a.m., get up, and do everything as usual. Your boyfriend will be in a state of incoherence because it would be hard for him to understand why it’s so dark out, yet the time is 7. Try to act normal and see how long they take to comprehend this prank.

8. Honey, I am bald!

Tell your boyfriend that you have shaved your head and eyebrows for a fresh, new look. It would be quite hysterical to see their reaction. Instead, you can use the filters of social media, take snaps, and send them to him.

9. Family heirloom

Any heirloom that has been in the family for generations holds a lot of value, so pretend you have lost a valuable family heirloom. For instance, it could be a necklace of his great-grandmother or his aunt’s ring. See how they react to it, and you can both have a laugh when he realizes that it was a prank all along.

10. Cracked

Install a screen guard that resembles a cracked screen on their phone and computer after they sleep. So, when they wake up, they will be horrified to see it.

11. Alexa

If your boyfriend is tech-savvy and relies on Alexa to take care of most of his things, the best way to prank him would be to override all the commands on his Alexa. The app on his phone is the key to changing all the commands, so it will be quite the opposite when he tries to do something. Making him scratch his head and seeing him try to figure out what went wrong will be quite amusing.

12. Where did my engagement ring go?

If you both are engaged, then tell him that you are unable to find the engagement ring. Ask him for his “help” to find it and then see the questions you get bombarded with; that or he could go down a road of hysteria. All in all, it will be quite the experience watching him writhe under pressure.

13. Happy birthday!

Log in to his Facebook and Twitter, and change his birthday to April 1. He will be confused by the constant birthday wishes. You could even take him out for dinner and tell the restaurant that it is his birthday. They will bring a cake, and that will make him even more confused.

14. Shiver

If they are going for a warm shower in the morning, turn off the geyser. As soon as they turn on the shower, they will be hit by cold water and will be jumping up and down with shivers running all over their body.

15. Tattoo love

Getting a fake tattoo is one way that you can get a laugh out of him. There are lots of options that you can find online when it comes to getting a fake tattoo. You could also pretend that you got yourself inked with your boyfriend’s name or ex’s name, and they will not know how to react to it.

16. Minty Oreo

A good old food prank is gold. If your boyfriend is a fan of Oreo, replace the cream filling with something, such as toothpaste. You could also go for mashed potatoes, but toothpaste is always the better option.

protip_icon Quick tip
Ensure you are around when your boyfriend is eating the toothpaste-filled oreo. If he isn’t paying attention while eating, he might end up swallowing the toothpaste, which may not be good for his tummy.

17. Ring-ring

One of the classic dupes in the books is to change your boyfriend’s ringtone to something quite obnoxious. You could either record a custom tone and change it or search for something funny that will put him in an awkward position in public.

18. A baby

It is April 1, so playing a fake pregnancy prank on your boyfriend is a good idea. To make it more believable, you could also announce it on social media and ask your friends to congratulate you so that your boyfriend does not suspect you when you break the news to him for the first time. You could also fake a pregnancy test at home to get his reaction.

19. A look change

Change into an improper outfit every 30 minutes, and he will ask you what is wrong. Try to act nonchalant, as if it is normal, and continue with your chores as usual.

20. Ping

Pretend that you are taking pictures and sending them to a guy. The continuous ping of messages will make him question you. Ask a friend to help you with the prank as you would need someone to text. Also, make sure to change that friend’s name on your phone so that your boyfriend doesn’t catch you pranking him.

21. Brrr…it’s cold

Next time you go camping with your boyfriend and friends, pull your boyfriend’s sleeping bag sneakily (while he is sleeping) out of the tent. Get your friends to help you and when you’re done, wake him up and find him confused.

protip_icon Do remember
Do not let him sleep out of the tent or he might fall sick. Ensure that you wake him up a few moments after he is pulled out of the tent.

22. Alexa

If your boyfriend is tech-savvy and relies on Alexa to take care of most of his things, the best way to prank him would be to override all the commands on his Alexa. The app on his phone is the key to changing all the commands, so it will be quite the opposite when he tries to do something. Making him scratch his head and seeing him try to figure out what went wrong will be quite amusing.

23. Wrap everywhere

Before your boyfriend goes to take a bath, cover all his toiletries with wraps. Ensure to cover the lids as well, so when he tries to use these items, he cannot open them with wet hands.

24. Talk time

You might feel anxious when your significant other brings up “we need to talk,” and you have no idea what they might be thinking about. So, why not play a hoax and put your boyfriend in the same position, and ask him something trivial? He will get the spoof.

You can also prank your beau by ignoring him. This will make him think they did something to upset you and could be very funny when they find out it was a prank. Monica, a wife, pranked her partner by doing the same. She said that he pranked her once and now it is her time to get back at him. She was a little concerned about how he would react to the prank but was excited to try. She mentioned that she will not talk to him and try her best to keep ignoring him when he gets back home (i).”

25. Sticky phone

Use double-sided tape to secure your boyfriend’s phone to the table or phone. Call your partner repeatedly and laugh as they attempt to answer the phone owing to the unexpected attachment.

26. Getting back together with your ex

Getting back together with your ex can be an emotional rollercoaster. No one wants to face the pain of losing their partner to another man, especially if that other person is her ex. Engaging in a naughty prank like this can bring about intense emotions, even tears, for some.

27. Bring up an old issue

Bringing up an old issue as a prank on your boyfriend takes a playful spin on past fights. You may casually bring up the topic while acting sincerely upset, and observe his puzzled response. Allow the suspense to build for a moment before breaking into a cheeky grin and revealing the prank. It might be amusing to anticipate his response, and sharing some laughter together can deepen your relationship.

61. That’s not the song

62. “Flour-y” mess

The prank requires you to take some flour and put it in a small plastic jar. Take the jar and balance it on top of the door at the very edge. Keep the door slightly open so when your boyfriend enters the room, their face and head will be covered in flour.

When you are done, take the cloth off and ask him to look inside the bottle. When he does, press the bottle, and the water will splash on his face.

Take his phone and change the time to an hour early, he will end up reaching the office early and will be quite confused when he ends up seeing no one at the office.

72. No prank

73. Investment, what!?

If you and your boyfriend share your finances, implementing this would be a perfect idea. All you have to do is tell him that you lost a huge sum of money in gambling or won a huge sum from a lottery. Either way, you can get a huge reaction from him, which is when you can break the news to him.

74. Sundae not so fun-day

If your boyfriend loves ice-cream sundaes, then this prank is something you must try. Swap the ice cream for mashed potatoes and decorate it the same way an ice-cream sundae would be. The first scoop that he takes will reflect on his face.

88. Enquiring about rights

Enter your boyfriend’s room suddenly and shout, ‘Who gave you the right to this?’ in a playful manner. Continue by saying things like, ‘You know exactly what I mean!’ and ‘You’ve crossed a line!’ when he asks about what’s going on.

Another amusing prank for your boyfriend is to sew up the bottom of his favorite pajamas or boxers while he’s at work.

90. Upside-down shake

Make his favorite shake in a mug as usual. Then, flip the mug upside down on a cardboard or solid saucer and top the bottom of the cup with whipped cream and a cherry to give the illusion of a perfect shake.
