So here are some they could choose that involved April Fool’s Day:

• Tell about an April Fool’s Day experience you remember from another year.
• Write about a funny, but nice April Fool’s Day joke you plan.
• Write about something nice you can do for someone on April Fool’s Day.
• Tell about a gift you can make for someone on April Fool’s Day, one student suggested.
• Older students could research the origin of  April Fool’s Day and write about it.

Do you have any suggestions?

April Fool’s Day Writing Prompts

If you or your family entertain thoughts of writing, either for pure fun, to write stories for school lessons, or to write about quilting, you might enjoy the series I’ve begun at One Book Two Book, Mary Emma’s Writing Tips.  Although the weekly tips, prompts and activities are slated for young writers, they will work for anyone.

These will appear at One Book Two Book each Sunday. I also will suggest books and web sites where you can find help and inspiration, too.

I’ve written many articles and stories about quilts, quilters and quiltmaking, as well as writing a book.  It’s an enjoyable outlet for me.  I’ve also included mention of quilts in stories I’ve written for children. 

One of my joys is sharing writing with children and adults and encouraging them in their writing activities.  Thus the weekly feature at One Book Two Book.
