MAYAN APRIL FOOLS!

The world did not come to an end AGAIN.

There is a tradition in the US to play jokes on the first day of April.

First you tell a very plausible lie. My kids' favorite was, "I flunked my math test."

When I would say, "Oh, no!", the reply would be, "April Fools!"

This is a VERY good game as it teaches critical thinking, and checking your sources. Since it is only done on ONE day of the year, it can be somewhat overdone. I am thinking about a blog stating that The Sun published photos of David Cameron sunbathing in the nude and the photos were taken by his security force.

Remember it is a game, so do NOTHING that will really put people in danger.

And you have a riddle for Christmas. WHY did I chose that April Fools joke? Hint. There is a villa in France and a bicycle in Britain.
