My daughter is 5 now. She's discovered the joy of telling jokes. Unfortunately, her repertoire is painfully small. I've also realised most of my jokes are either not age appropriate or too situational.

What are best/worst kids jokes? Extra points for any that would make her teacher groan. Apparently she LOVES jokes. 😁

I thought queue came from French

Originally, yes.

But in present usage Americans say "line" while Brits say "queue."

I'm not sure about other Anglophone places.
