5 Funny Questions About Turkey Day That Will Be a Guaranteed Hit at the Kids' Table

Turkey is a staple of every Thanksgiving here in America. No dinner will ever be complete without a steaming hot turkey at the center of the table. But, the beloved dish has also become the butt of many jokes over a hearty meal.

These turkey jokes I use always make the kids laugh so hard at the turkey and whet their appetites. Now, I'll show you how to get into the act.

1. What was the turkey grateful for on Thanksgiving? Vegetarians!

There's not much to be thankful for when you're about to become the main course for a family dinner. But hey, let's always try to find the silver lining. That is, if there's even a vegetarian on the Thanksgiving table.

2. Why do turkeys go "gobble gobble"? Because they never learned good table manners.

Table manners are a must, especially in big gatherings like Thanksgiving. Good thing that turkey didn't live to terrorize you with its poor dining etiquette. If that were me, I'd probably roast that bird all over again if it "gobbled" over our peaceful dinner.

3. What did the turkey say to the computer? Google, google!

Looking for possible alternatives to roast turkey at Thanksgiving. Maybe roast chicken or a barbecue instead? Unfortunately, the turkey will find that it's the most sought-after dish on Thanksgiving.

4. Why can't you take a turkey to church? Because they use FOWL language.

This also goes for chickens, ducks, and geese. Poultry is banned from church. Maybe this "fowl" language has something to do with them being so loud.

5. What did the turkey say before it was roasted? Whew! I'm stuffed!

And a few minutes later, the family around the dinner table will say, "Whew! I'm stuffed!" But on a more serious note, remember that the stuffing makes the turkey special, so put effort into it.

5 Fun Thanksgiving Knock Knock One Liners That Will Make the Little Ones Laugh Out Loud

Who doesn't love a classic knock-knock joke? In this part, I will show you some classic Thanksgiving knock-knock one liners that will make you the uncle or aunt who rocks at Thanksgiving dinner.

These jokes always crack the little ones up when I use them. It's a great icebreaker and conversation starter. Especially for young ones who are too timid to interact with relatives they seldom see.

6. Knock, knock! Who's there? Arthur.  Arthur Who?  Arthur any leftovers?

A more colorful approach to asking for some of that sumptuous reheated turkey. I mean, who wouldn't want a second go at it? Those leftovers will be in high demand come the next morning.

7. Knock, knock! Who's there? Annie. Annie who? Annie body seen the turkey?

A subtle way of stating how hungry you are. Always works. If you are the one who's serving food, then take this as a "hurry-up" message.

8. Knock, knock! Who's there? Don. Don who? Don't eat all the gravy! Leave some for me.

Always share the gravy. It's a family gathering, so let's leave some for our loved ones. Thanksgiving is all about everyone having the best fun.

9. Knock, knock! Who's there? Gladys. Gladys who? I'm Gladys Thanksgiving.

I mean, how can you not be glad when you're enjoying good food and the company of loved ones? One must always cherish times such as Thanksgiving. Especially in the fast-paced world we live in today. These occasions are becoming a lot rarer these days.

10. Knock, knock! Who's there? Dewey. Dewey who? Dewey have to wait long to eat?

A somewhat less subtle way of saying you're hungry. Serve the food already. Never keep your guests waiting at the table.

4 Silly Things to Say About Thanksgiving Food That Kids Will Find Amusing

It isn't only turkey that Thanksgiving food is about. Dishes such as cranberry sauce, bread, pumpkin pie, and mashed potato add even more flavor to an already great Thanksgiving dinner. I'm going to show you how to put these dishes in the spotlight.

See the kids crave more cranberry sauce with these food-oriented funny Thanksgiving jokes for kids.

11. Why was Thanksgiving food so expensive? It had 24 carrots.

It's a given fact that Thanksgiving food is expensive. But hey, it's a special occasion, so why not splurge a bit on the moolah? If you have some cash to spare, why not use it to level up your Thanksgiving dinner?

12. Why was the chef late to Thanksgiving dinner? He lost track of THYME.

You can lose track of time, but never, EVER, lose track of the thyme. Spices make Thanksgiving a unique and special culinary experience.

13. What do you call a sad cranberry? A blueberry.

I have never heard of a sad cranberry. But, I have heard of people that were sad because there was no cranberry sauce at the table. It's the only way sadness can be associated with cranberry sauce.

14. What side dish tells the worst jokes? Corn-y bread.

Another dad joke. You should have seen this coming from a mile away. As for the corn-y bread, he wouldn't be as corny if he read these jokes.

5 Corny Puns About Pilgrims For the Younger Ones to Enjoy

History has always been boring for many people. But it's important to teach the kids about the origin of Thanksgiving. So what better way to do that than with some jokes?

These little jokes and puns will stimulate those funny bones and brain cells at once. Here, I'm going to give you some jokes that will knock the socks off of the kids. So let's check them out.

15. What do you call the age of a Pilgrim? Pilgrimage.

This is another classic. You should've seen this one coming from a mile away. But hey, it still works for me.

16. What happened to the Pilgrim who was shot at by an Indian? He had an arrow escape.

Historically speaking, the Pilgrims were brave people venturing into the unknown. Pilgrims who had "an arrow" escape would have been quite many. Thanksgiving has come a long way from those days.

17. Why do the Pilgrim's pants always fall down? Because they wear their belt buckles on their hats.

Of course. Although, the hat buckles would have probably done their jobs holding the hats down. Oh, and did I mention how clean they look?

18. Why didn't the Pilgrim bake bread for Thanksgiving? Because it's a crummy job.

Baking bread can sometimes be tough, but I doubt the truth behind this. Pilgrims are a tough bunch. But that's why it's a joke, right?

19. Where did the pilgrims first stand? On their feet.

I mean, where else would they stand? On their hands? Pretty straightforward joke, if you ask me.
