Anyone got any good jokes for a 4 year old?

1 votes

Our 4 year old is starting to be interested in telling and being told jokes. His favorites right now are to ask someone to "look under there" and then laugh when they say "under where?" because they said "underwear." He also likes knock knock jokes, or the bit where you take turns counting with him "I one myself," "I two myself," "I three myself," until one of you says "I eight [ate] myself." Hilarity ensues.

Trouble is, we're getting a bit tired of these jokes. So, what have you got that your kids like?

    My son did a tiny stand up routine with his dad at the preschool talent show. We found great jokes on the sticks of the popcicles we had bought! and in the Highlights magazine for children.

    Here's a couple I remember:

    What's a cat's favorite color?  Purrrrrple.

    Why do sea gulls fly over the sea?  Because if they flew over the bay they would be called Bagels  (bay gulls)

    have fun finding more!

    I recently saw 2 joke books listed for kids in the Cricket magazine catalog. Cricket has educational magazines for kids. The two books  " You must be joking"  are in the 6-9 year old category --- but they might be worth looking at !  Online source is Cricketmag.com. Good luck !

    Why is 6 afraid of 7? Because 7 ate (eight) 9.

    Knock knock. Who's there? Banana. Banana who? Banana banana. Knock knock. Who's there? Banana. Banana who? Banana banana. Knock knock. Who's there? Orange. Orange who? Orange you glad I'm not a banana?

    Those are both good! Sad to say, he knows both of those already. Keep 'em coming!
