Every joke in this set is written to be clean from the first word: no innuendo, no insults and no references that need explaining later. The subjects are animals, food, school and everyday objects, which are easy to say in front of any audience.

That makes the set useful in rooms with a mix of ages, such as a classroom, a church potluck or a family reunion table. A practical tip is to pick two or three ahead of time and write them on index cards, so you can hand a card to a child who wants a turn to read.

Parents can use the set as reading practice. Each joke is one question and one short answer in ordinary vocabulary, which gives a child learning to read a complete thought to sound out in a few seconds. Ask the child to read the question, then let them find the answer. Families also take turns with it at the table before dessert.
