I absolutely, 100% cannot wait until I can do this with (to?) my kid…
Other prank ideas:
1. Fun with Object Permanence -or- “The behind-the-back disappearing hand” (complete with fake blood)
2. Poop or pudding
3. The monster who brings you food
4. The mother who eats your face
5. Replacing baby’s bottle with a non-alcoholic version (and laugh as the baby can’t seem to stop the tremors no matter how much he drinks)
Comment back with other great ways to keep those babies on their toes…

I’m a big fan of the “got your nose” trick, except using their kidney.
Also, there’s that variation on the “seven minutes in heaven” closet game, except they’re by themselves. And it’s more like eight hours.
Oh! And seeing who can do more Benadryl shots before they pass out.
I’m available for day care, parties, and concrete formwork.

Beautiful ideas, G. I tried the “seven minutes in heaven” game with my neighbor’s kid except I didn’t think of the “they’re by themselves” part. And that is why I now am not allowed with 50 feet of a schoolyard.

Eli! Thank you so much.
I hadn’t seen the laughing baby video before. It’s great. I did see this one which about gave me a hernia:
