Kid Jokes:
How did an ant turn into a rock?
It was already a butterfly.
How did the dog fly up to the sky?
He had wings on his head.
Now you may have read these two jokes and said to yourself not only are they not funny, but they don't make any sense. Well both of those may be true, but if it is something you overhear when your 4 and 5 year old boys are telling jokes to each other then it makes perfect sense and you start to laugh. My kids are the best, and they say the darndest things.
They have a great imagination and when you hear a couple of kids having a conversation with one another sometimes it may make sense and sometimes it doesn't. But the bottom line is it doesn't have to. Kids have their own language. Their own stories. Their own way of telling a joke. Who cares if what they said doesn't make sense? At least they are talking. Who cares if the jokes they tell you aren't funny? As long as they laugh and they are using their imagination that is all that matters. Alway encourage them and support them in all that they do.
So the next time your child wants to tell you a story or a joke just listen to them. It may not mean anything now, but one day that imagination of theirs could turn into the next great idea, the next big comedian, the next big star!!
