It's always been my private dream to become the office prankster. Wreaking a small amount of havoc and shenanigans in the workplace. Passivise aggressively annoying the co-workers who always annoy me in return.
But I'm not clever enough to do that and not get fired.
April Fools day in coming up and it's another chance to incorporate a passive seek and find program at your library.
Using the power of observation, patrons are asked to find at least 3 silly things in the library.
Here are some of the idea my coworkers and I came up with....
Upside down posters
Goofy faces/Smiley faces places in the library
Re-label subject heading signs Gross Body Parts= Health 612's Long Ago = History
A book on toilets or potty training that has been "TP'd"
Googly eyes or Cartoon eyes on poster or protraits
Plastic goldfish in a bowl near books about aquariums
Section of books with spines facing the wrong way or upside down
Re-label office signs- From the Harmless (Minstry of Silly Walks) to the bold. I want to add "Of Farts" under the sign Administrative Office but I might chicken out because our director seriously lacks a sense of humor
If you have puppet or stuffed animals decorating your area, put sunglasses, hats, or headphones on them.
Have the staff members wear a silly hat or put a on a name tag with a clearly made up name (Yoda, Humpty Dumpty, Burt Macklin, FBI)
Have a upside down bowl out with a sign "Don't move the bowl unless you plan to kill what is under it!"
Places mirrors with signs that read "Mirror under repair, do not use!"
Plastic bats, bugs, or spider rings stuck to the windows
Cut out some Ellison Die "E" in brown paper. Place at a service desk with a sign reading "Free Brownies"
My cunning idea for a prize would be to tell the kids they get a tattoo for playing. Then ask them to roll up their sleeves while I change the needle of of my tattoo gun. Laugh and say "Just Kiddding!" and let them pick out a temporary tattoo.
Yeah, we'll see how many get that joke.....
