So is there a way to make knock-knock jokes for kids funny, or even just bearable, for adults? Believe it or not, killer knock-knock jokes do exist. “I believe what makes knock-knock jokes fun is the fact that they are interactive,” says Rob Elliot, dad joke extraordinaire and author of Knock-Knock Jokes for Kids. “You have to respond to get to the punch line. This makes them fun for kids and their families ⏤ even if parents are not particularly fans of knock-knock jokes.” Elliot suggests seeking surprising jokes to find the funniest (and corniest) knock-knock jokes for kids. Otherwise, look for jokes that “poke fun at knock-knock jokes or about hearing another knock-knock joke … because we all know after too many, they drive us all a bit crazy.” Here are 128 killer knock-knock jokes for kids and adults, including a few good ones from Elliot’s book, plus several corny new ones.
