801.0. "kids jokes needed" by GRILLA::LALIBERTE (NEI/Systems Engineering) Tue Aug 09 1994 16:54

    My 6 year old is going to be in a Talent show. He decided he wanted
    to tell jokes. (oh, pls save me). 
    
    Can someone share some appropriate jokes for  that age group? The audience
    will be the same age group and perhaps a bit younger.
    
    Many thanks.
