Thumbs up

I'm looking to get some ideas for party pranks to do at an upcoming family activity camp. Party pranks need to be funny but not too mean. They also need to be suitable for young people and adults. I'll give a couple of examples to give you an idea and if anyone can think of any more then that would be awesome.

10p trick
Ask for two volunteers, one of which will be the target for the prank. Get them both to stand up at the front. Explain to them that you will wet a 10p coin and press it fairly hard onto their forehead so it sticks. They then have to slap the back of their head to knock the 10p off. The person that knocks it off in the fewest hits is the winner. Start with the first volunteer and stick the 10p on their forehead so it is visible to the 2nd volunteer. After a few hits the 10p will fall off. Ask the volunteer to sit back down in the crowd. Now do the same for the 2nd volunteer and press the 10p onto their forehead, as your hand comes away, bring the 10p off as well so they don't actually have the 10p on their forehead. If you pressed quite hard, it will still feel to them as if they 10p is on their forehead and they will furiously hit their own head to get the 10p off. In the past, I've had someone hit their own head 16 times before they realised.

Fake arms
Ask for two volunteers for this again. They will both act out a story that is narrated by you. The first volunteer will be the body and the head of the character, while the 2nd volunteer will be behind the 1st volunteer and put his arms under the other volunteers arms so it looks like the arms are the front volunteers. You then utilise a number of props in a table in front e.g. shaving foam, glasses of water, food etc. You need the first volunteer to be a good sport and get quite messy but its very funny for the crowd.

Anyway, as you can see, both ideas are funny but still suitable for all ages. While they are a little mean, they are not too mean as we select volunteers who are good sports and don't mind getting a little embarrassed. Any further ideas with jokes at the same level would be awesome.

Bit more background if it helps: the jokes will be done outside in front of about 40 to 60 people. A massive mix of ages from 5 years old to 60+ year old. If it requires any props then they will need to be cheap and/or easy to get hold of.

Thanks in advance.

toothpaste on toilet seat.

sad wrap over toilet bowl.

plastic cup with water on top of door. Glue string to cup and door so that it does not injure someone.

16" piece of bicycle inner tube slid over exhaust pipe of lux cars.

plastic dry cleaning bag under catalytic converter and mufflers. Will smell for months.

Not quite what you are looking for, but.....
