10 Funny Animal Jokes for kids - antidotes to family travel!

Family travel can be testing, and flight delays, traffic jams and passport queues can be a stressful start or end to a holiday. Car and plane games are a great to while away hours spent waiting, but a funny joke or two can help to lighten the mood. Plus the skill to make others laugh is a great confidence booster for any child.

A few years ago our youngest kept not only us, but a number of travellers around us entertained with his repetoire of best jokes, whilst waiting for a delayed flight, his airport performance ended up being a highlight of his holiday!

A good sense of humorcan make kids smarter, healthier, and better able to cope with challenges. We tend to think that people are naturally funny and that it's part of their genetic make-up, like blue eyes or big feet. But a sense of humor is a learned quality that can be developed in kids, it's not something they're born with.

With this in mind I have included a smattering of jokes around the art and craft, games and puzzle activities, in the new Pipity Activity books. I hope that children will enjoy and share these jokes... hopefully injecting some fun into a long car journey, helping with 'hangry' feelings waiting for food to arrive, or keeping a crowd entertained whilst waiting for a delayed flight!
