It’s almost that time for kids to be going back to school. I recently shared a back to school Apple craft, and then I rounded up a handful of other back to school crafts for preschoolers. In the spirit of the end of the summer, I thought it would be fun to share some of the best kid jokes I’ve found that have to do with school. 

So what encompasses a “kid joke?” In my opinion, a “kid joke” usually involves simple wordplay, puns, or humor that is easy for children to understand and appreciate. It often includes lighthearted and silly subject matter that is suitable for a young audience. It should create good, clean, laughable fun. Kind of like these funny knock knock jokes for kids.  You might even find a few math jokes, teacher jokes, knock-knock jokes, corny jokes, history jokes, science jokes, teacher’s pet jokes, and maybe even a few that can be used as dad jokes . Either way, these are some of the best jokes for school I found. Print this list and get ready for the next school season!
