I found this brochure on the Family Fun Website. It’s a brochure for a fake camp, called Chore Camp. You can learn all about washing dishes without leaving water spots, make beds with hospital corners, and learn weed extraction techniques. I had printed the brochure and showed it to my son. He started reading it and looked at us like we were crazy. We tried convincing him that it could be fun. Hey, they had a car wash learning center too! They totally bought it! Pretty soon, we asked the kids if they remembered what day it was… April Fools! As soon as we told them we had a plane to catch for Disneyland, they hustled to get dressed. We were out the door by 5:50, and on the plane by 8:30am. Let me tell you, Disneyland was much more fun than Chore Camp.
That's a childhood memory they'll never forget! What a great surprise. I'm sure their memory books will be filled with pictures and stories, especially about the April Fool's trick. Hope you all had an awesome time!
HOW FUN! We live near Disneyland, and have annual passes, my niece and nephew have some also and they were staying with us, and we told them a story on an errand we had to run and about a block away we told them where we were really going, luckily I had it captured on camera. It was great. How perfect to do it on April Fools though!
