Faucets and garden hoses. Extra fresh.

I also occasionally give out jokes to the kids who don’t have one, usually recycling something I’ve heard.

How do you know a vampire is sick?
The coffin.

I just love the chaos of jokes from under 5s

Why did the clown cross the road?
To scare people

Songs only from the girls:
Trick or treat.
Smell my feet.
Give me something sweet to eat.

Why did the werewolf get lost?
Because where-wolf!

Why do eggs hate Fridays?
Because they get fried.

Why didn’t the skeleton go to the party?
Didn’t have any-body to go with.

A greyhound! My heart melts
