April Fools Day isn't the only prank day that people around the world celebrate. Here are three other days similar to April Fools.

°·One:

In , Possion d'Avril is celebrated. In 1564, King Charles IX had noticed that different regions around started their calendars on different days of the year, often on March 25. He declared that the New Year would start on January first instead. If the news hadn't reached where you had lived, you could be left open to being mocked by other people who knew about the change in the New Year. The most popular prank within the 16th century that is still popular among children in today is attaching a paper fish to a person's back, leaving them the April Fish.
