My parents told me this was my favorite joke when I was around your daughterβs age. Apparently I used the joke non-stop and my parents still laughed every time because of how much I cracked up at my own joke.

Oh! Sorry, I wasn't expecting you.
Has she discovered the use of puns yet? I would recommend those cheesy dad-joke books and the joke pages from copies of Reader's Digest.
She's discovered the concept, along with jokes, she doesn't quite "get" them yet. She gets the basic idea, but not the subtleties that make them work. The results are cute, but horrifically bad.
Have you done banana banana banana orange yet? Can be retold many ways by kids who didn't quite get the pun, like "grape you glad I'm not a banana." Hilarious every time, when you're the 5 year old.
How about elephant jokes? There are so many of those.
Do they not sell kids joke books in the check out line at the grocery store anymore? Used to be tons of those.
