My teenage daughter loves silly jokes and funny puns for kids. She’ll have a different joke or pun to tell her teachers, school staff, and classmates at school at least twice a week.
It’s the best way for her way to break the ice and make new friends.

In fact, the campus monitor searches her out in the morning to get the new joke or pun of the day, which he also uses to make the kids laugh.
So I asked her to put together a list of her best puns that have been favorites around the school. Most are questions answered with clever puns that most people won’t think of.
With so many bad puns out there, all her funny puns are clean and mom-approved.
She quickly came up with this list of 41 hilarious puns that you too can use with your kids, and even adults for a quick laugh.
