Remember when you first discovered the magic of wordplay? I certainly do. I was about seven years old when my uncle Tom the family jokester asked me why the bicycle couldn’t stand up by itself. “Because it was two-tired!” he announced with a twinkle in his eye. While I didn’t immediately get it, that moment sparked my lifelong love affair with The Best Puns from Kids’ Jokes.

As someone who’s collected jokes for decades, I’ve noticed how the most innocent wordplay often delivers the biggest laughs. So let’s dive into the world of kids’ puns those delightful, sometimes ridiculous, always heartwarming plays on words that remind us not to take life too serious.
