Telling jokes with toddlers

David told me a joke while we were driving to dinner. Emmett didn't get it, and any attempt to explain it, well, just didn't work. He didn't even seem to get the concept of "joke."

We moved on to knock-knock jokes. I told the "interrupting cow" joke, and David tried the "orange you glad I didn't say banana" one, but Emmett still seemed unclear on the concept. He would say "who's there," but missed the importance of the "_____ who?" line.

I guess we'll have to keep working on jokes.
