April fools day of: IKEA

IKEA stated the following: 

We’re about to transform Småland from a playground into a ‘press-play-ground’!

Our studies of children's play habits reveal that today's kids prefer tablets to physical activity. So we're replacing the magical forest with a haven of sitting pods with tablets—recreating the way your kids play.
