Actually, I'd say that they're more indulging a natural taste they have for 
jokes, being creative and testing their wares on their peers, and 
essentially doing something constructive toward their own futures.

They also enjoy life, and are good Quidditch players - so they do something 
besides invent joke products.

They don't complain - in fact, I forget whether it's Fred or George who 
makes the oblique reference to the books needed for second year not coming 
cheap, but they do it in a sensitive way (for them) that shows that they're 
concerned about their mom's worries over the family budget.
