This is my four-year-old son’s favorite. But you needed to flesh it out.

“Knock, Knock”

“Who’s There?”

“Banana”

“Banana Who?”

“Knock, Knock”

“Who’s There?”

“Banana”

“Banana Who?”

“Knock, Knock”

“Who’s There”

“Orange”

“Orange Who?”

“Orange you glad I didn’t say ‘Banana’ again?”

Here’s what you do - give your joke a tremendous build-up. Might go something like this:

YOU: Okay, I have the greatest joke ever.  
HIM: Really?  
YOU: Yeah, it’s a knock-knock joke, and it’s killer.  
HIM: All right!  
YOU: Really, this joke is hilarious. Wanna hear it?  
HIM: Yeah!  
YOU: This is so awesome, you ready?  
HIM: YES!  
_(this is all just to get him off balance)_  
YOU: Okay, say ‘knock-knock’.  
HIM: Knock-knock.  
YOU: Who’s there? _(look at him expectantly)_

Very shortly, he’ll catch on.
