April 1 just happens to be my husband's birthday, I am going to do this and present it as his birthday cake.
Wasted two buns on that trick but it was worth it.
Hey, she's 4.
My nephew, who's 10, got his parents soooo good
You know the little sprayer that's next to the kitchen faucet? Hopefully your faucet/sink is set up that way. Well, he put a rubber band tightly around the sprayer so that it was "on" and kept it in its normal position, aimed outward -- basically aimed at anyone who was standing at the sink. Everyone who walked up and turned on the sink got a small blast of water.
No one got hurt or soaked ... just a little spray of water and a big surprise!
I'll tell you, the kid's brilliant. Not only did he think this one up all by himself and get both parents with it at different times, when he was around five, I asked him what he wanted to be when he grew up. He said he wanted to work for NASA (we're close by). I said, "Oh, yeah? You want to go up in space?" He said, "No. I want to build the space ships."
We didn't fill little sis in on it because she tends to rat us out 
I was at work but called home and had a "normal" conversation with DH....what did you & the kids do today, what do you want for supper, etc. Finally after about 5 minutes he says "Yea, I got soaked!!!" I had to laugh. I asked how the kids reacted and he said they were rolling on the kitchen floor with laughter! When I spoke to my son he said it was a riot. When I asked if daddy was mad he said uh, yup! But he did laugh about it with them. He said he thought the faucet was broke at first till he saw the elastic 
Must remember to watch my back now The kids spent the entire day taping things up - the salt and pepper shakers, the toilet lid, the soap dispenser. They said there are at least three pranks we have not found yet.
All I can think about with this one is that gritty cottony taste when they bit into it!
