30 Best April Fools' Pranks to Play on Your Boyfriend

Connect to a Bluetooth speaker in the house without him noticing. Then, randomly play unexpected sounds — like ghostly whispers or a funny voice — to freak him out. Bonus: Pretend you don't hear it when he asks what's going on!

Flip the cap of his drink bottle, sprinkle a little powdered sugar inside, and close it. When he takes a sip, he’ll get an unexpected mouthful of sweet powder — and exhale it in a messy puff. (Get that camera ready!)

Change his phone's language settings to something unfamiliar. He’ll be baffled trying to navigate through the settings in a language he doesn't recognize to find the way to change it back.

This one's a bit messy so make sure he's a good sport before attempting: Scoop out the top layer of his deodorant and replace it with cream cheese. When he goes to apply it, he’ll get a smelly, smeared surprise!

Give him a scratch-off lottery ticket that’s designed to always be a winner. Watch as his excitement builds — until he realizes it's not real. (Womp womp!)

Change the time on all the clocks in the house, either ahead or behind. He’ll be confused about whether he’s running late — or early! — for everything.

Use the TV’s settings to set the volume limit super low. No matter how high he turns it up, it won’t get louder, making him think the remote or TV is broken — or maybe that he's just losing it!

Swap the sugar and salt containers. Whe he drinks his morning coffee or tea, he’s in for a shocking first sip! (Make sure to have a backup cup of caffeine ready so he’s not too grumpy afterward.)

Use a friend’s phone to send him texts pretending to be a random “long-lost friend” who remembers him from way back in the day. See how long it takes before he realizes it’s all a joke — or reveal yourself with an "April Fools" text in the thread!

Poke a few tiny holes in his straw near the top. When he tries to drink, liquid will spill out unexpectedly, giving him a childlike dribble (and giving you both a harmless laugh at his expense).

Spend days — even weeks! — leading up to April 1 promising him you’re about to blow his mind with the biggest, craziest, most epic prank ever. When the day comes, don’t do a single thing… except enjoy watching him squirm all day in nervous anticipation.

Use permanent marker to draw an over-the-top tattoo on your body in his honor (or buy a custom fake online if you’re really committed). The more ridiculous the better. Bonus: Tell him it would mean a lot to you if he got inked with a matching one…

If your boyfriend already put a ring on it, pull a fast one: Stash it (safely) away, and then announce you lost it down the drain. (Not engaged? This works equally well with any jewelry gift of value.)

For this prank, you don’t have to say anything. Just put on your best poker face each time you strut out in front of him wearing an inexplicably different outfit. (If he’s not the observant type, you might have to do it 10 times before he even starts to notice!)

This works best for the boyfriend with shared finances. Tell him you got into day trading as a side hustle and lost a huge sum of money making a bad bet. Or — tell him you won a huge sum on a hot tip!

If your boyfriend is known to leave an empty roll of toilet paper for you to deal with instead of replacing it promptly himself, this is the April Fools' prank that will teach him a lesson: replace the toilet paper roll with a roll of duct tape instead.

If your guy is a couch commando, use April 1 as an occasion to get him back for all the times he seized control of the remote when you wanted to watch something else on TV. Using a pen, ink a black dot on a piece of scotch tape, and place it over the remote’s sensor. It won’t work to control the TV — and nope, it still won’t work after he changes the batteries three different times.

Is your man a big fan of The Office? Then take a page out of Jim's playbook and encapsulate one of his essential items in Jello. It works best if you let a first batch set, drop in the item and then cover it with a second batch to set, fully encasing the item.

Dude, where’s my car? That’s what he’ll wonder after he looks for his ride on the street where he parked it. You of course will know just where it is since you moved it last night while he was sleeping! Just let him know where it actually is before he reports the car stolen though, okay?

Carefully remove Oreo cookies from their package and replace the cream filling with another edible white substance (like mayo!). Choose just one random Oreo to mess with for maximum surprise when he’s expecting nothing out of the ordinary.
