My daughter is 5 now. She's discovered the joy of telling jokes. Unfortunately, her repertoire is painfully small. I've also realised most of my jokes are either not age appropriate or too situational.

What are best/worst kids jokes? Extra points for any that would make her teacher groan. Apparently she LOVES jokes. ๐Ÿ˜

How do you make a tissue dance? You put a little boogie in it.

So this cowboy puppy comes in here and says: I'm lookin for the man who shot my paw

While I like this one. Unfortunately, I suspect it will get a blank, confused look. We've managed to almost completely avoid guns etc.

Oh! Sorry, I wasn't expecting you.

Has she discovered the use of puns yet? I would recommend those cheesy dad-joke books and the joke pages from copies of Reader's Digest.

She's discovered the concept, along with jokes, she doesn't quite "get" them yet. She gets the basic idea, but not the subtleties that make them work. The results are cute, but horrifically bad.

Have you done banana banana banana orange yet? Can be retold many ways by kids who didn't quite get the pun, like "grape you glad I'm not a banana." Hilarious every time, when you're the 5 year old.

How about elephant jokes? There are so many of those.

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 1 day ago

Do they not sell kids joke books in the check out line at the grocery store anymore? Used to be tons of those.

I feel like a rambly long-form joke like this could really land: https://youtu.be/AXtNUgEWgQI
