April Fools' Party 2010

The April Fools' Party 2010 was Club Penguin's fifth annual April Fools' party that began on the March 31, 2010. It was scheduled to end on April 4, 2010, but it ended one day later. Which excited a lot of penguins because they got to play and explore more.

History
The April Fools' Party 2010 was first confirmed by Rookie in an issue of the Club Penguin Times, in which he mentioned that there would be many boxes at the party.

The next week the Club Penguin Times issue was a special April Fool's Party issue as there were drawings in marker all over it.
