Toddler Humor

Hayden has been really interested in jokes lately and it is cracking me up! I Googled some toddler-appropriate jokes to teach him and here are his favorites, and his 'renditions':

Hayden: Knock Knock
Me: Who's There
Hayden: Interrupting Cow
Me: Interru -
Hayden: Moooo!

The really funny thing is that when Hayden first learned this joke, he'd let me finish saying "Interrupting Cow Who?" before saying "Moo" - We've been working on the whole 'comedic timing' thing.

Why did the chicken cross the road?
To get to the other side.
(Why do toddlers think this joke is SO FUNNY?! I don't get it. Over and over and over.)

Why did the horse cross the road?
To get to his "neigh-borhood"
(Hayden does a GREAT horse "Neigh"!)

Why did the cow cross the road?
To get to his "neigh-borhood"
(Yes, he says that as the answer again because he likes that one better. The 'real' answer is, "to go to the Moooo-vies". He still says it his way.)

Hayden: Knock Knock
Me: Who's There?
Hayden: Lettuce
Me: Lettuce Who?
Hayden: Let me in, it's cold outside


My friend's 3-year-old daughter has a hilarious rendition of this classic Knock Knock joke. WAY funnier than the original:

Her: Knock Knock
Me: Who's There?
Her: Orange
Me: Orange Who?
Her: Knock Knock
Me: Who's There?
Her: Orange
Me: Orange Who?
Her: Knock Knock
Me: Who's There?
Her: Banana
Me: Banana Who?
Her: Aren't you glad I didn't say "orange" again?!
