Knock, knock. Who’s there?
A kid. A kid who? A kid who wants to talk your ear off all day long! Have you known a child (or been one?!) who loves to ask questions and tell jokes? The format of knock-knock jokes provides a repetitive structure that children adore. The setup and punchline give kids a chance to delight in the clash between the fourth line (blank who?) and the inevitable wallop at the end. Knock-knock jokes for kids are notoriously groan-worthy. That’s part of the fun. Kids will laugh whether the joke is technically funny or not. The more awkward and nonsensical punchlines usually get the loudest laughs, whether they’re long jokes or short jokes.
Check out our list of 50 great knock-knock jokes for kids. Read them aloud at your peril—you might be asking “who’s there?” a few dozen (or a million) times. Kids love to memorize these and offer them up again and again. That’s part of the fun, so let the silliness begin. If you want more fun and games, here are 101 short jokes that are easy to remember and some of the best riddles for kids you could find.
