The Best Halloween Jokes for Kids
Our 7-year-old son is a very big fan of jokes. Ever since he was about 4 heβs enjoyed memorizing them and sharing them with friends and family. In the past weβve put together lists of our favorite jokes and our favorite riddles, but our list of favorites keeps growing throughout the years, and he isnβt showing any signs of joke fatigue. So now weβre branching out to celebrate our favorite holiday seasons - like the spooky Halloween season - with a list of our favorite jokes.
Lately, a new joke book has proven to be a great gift choice for our son. If we give it to him before a road trip he can spend the entire drive memorizing his favorites and sharing them with us from the backseat. So recently I combed through our collection and hunted down a joke book from my childhood called Spooky Jokes & Riddles by Jeffrey S. Nelson.
Itβs full of great cartoon illustrations with ghosts and vampires and all sorts of other monsters. The humor is definitely hit and miss, but our son is all about the puns. I think thereβs something about wordplay thatβs exponentially funnier for early readers who are still exploring new words every day. But mostly what this book did was send us on a hunt for even more spooky jokes for the Halloween season.
We also discovered that another one of our favorite sources for jokes - our Amazon Echo - has a catalogue of Halloween jokes as well. All you have to do is say βAlexa, tell me a Halloween joke.β I have to warn you though, just like my old spooky joke book, Alexaβs collection is incredibly hit and miss. One jokeβs punchline required understanding the concept of βghostingβ in a relationship - so I guess itβs safe to say kids arenβt always her target audience.
This list of Halloween jokes is a compilation of all of our favorites - jokes weβve deemed to be worth memorizing and sharing with others every Halloween. We searched high and low for jokes we both think are legitimately funny. I only have so much space left in the old memory bank - if weβre going to be memorizing some spooky Halloween jokes together, they might as well be the very best! I hope you find a few to share with your kids and make them laugh this Halloween!
