I seem to recall, as a child, thinking the pinnacle of humor was:  
Knock knock  
Who’s there?  
Bear  
Bear who?  
Bare bum!

which was equal with my other favourite joke  
My dog has no nose (_whisper_ Say how does he smell)  
How does he smell?  
Terrible! Hahahahaha.

Children are odd creatures, aren’t they.

No, no, this can backfire in that they might spend a few seconds thinking of a knock-knock joke. What you’re supposed to say is this…

YOU: “Wanna hear the greatest knock-knock joke in the world?”  
“Sure.”  
YOU: “Okay, say knock-knock.”  
“Knock-knock.”  
YOU: “Who’s there?”

THEN you get the desired reaction, usually consisting of, “Uh… I dunno.”

When ds was 2, he’d been listening to dd 4 tell knock-knock jokes for a solid month. Bolted in his car seat, he started:

ds-knock knock  
me-who’s there?  
ds-da  
me-da who?  
ds-DADDY!!! (squealing with glee)

I was so surprised he got it I almost drove off the road. He hasn’t gotten one right in the past year.

When they demand I start the KK jokes, I just run the litany of the states…

KK  
WT?  
Miss  
Miss Who?  
Mississippi

etc., etc., etc.
