Tickle your kids’ funny bones with these fun (and oh so punny) Halloween jokes for kids. Squeaky clean and perfect for even the littlest ghosts in your house.

Who says Halloween has to be scary? If you’d rather switch out the spooky for silly this year, I’ve got a treat for you:
Q: What happened when the mummy ate too much candy?
A: He got a mummy ache.
This joke happens to be my preschooler’s favorite right now, and he tells it to just about everyone we meet…friends, grandparents, grocery store clerks…anyone who will reward him with a laugh.
Like many preschoolers, he is obsessed with telling jokes. (What is it with four-year-olds and jokes that make absolutely NO sense?) So, when we found a book of Halloween jokes and riddles at the library last week, he was thrilled to learn some new material!
They may be silly, but even little things can spark connection with your kids and service to others. Here are just a few ideas to get you started:
- Print out the jokes, cut them apart into strips, and then take turns telling them around the dinner table.
- Challenge your kids with a new joke/riddle each day when they come home from school. Can they guess the punch line?
- Invite your kids to tell one of their favorite jokes to a teacher, lunch worker, or fellow student at school.
- Make Halloween cards for friends and family, and include a Halloween joke.
- Send a Halloween E-card to brighten the day of a hospitalized child (such a simple little service project!)
Now that you’re bursting with ideas of how to use them, here are 20 kid-friendly Halloween jokes Tickle your family’s funny bones!
Note: This list has been specifically curated to get giggles from even the smallest goblins. They are simple, light-hearted (nothing too macabre), and fun for all ages. Enjoy!
