“Dad” Jokes
My full-time job has been keeping me hopping this week and that means I haven’t given as much attention to our community as I’d like. With the holiday weekend ahead, I’m in full on creative mode so stay tuned. However, I also think it’s important to have a few “dad” jokes in your pocket to amuse and entertain the kids. @Andrew Brooks has a whole Friday post devoted to these over in his community. Share your favorite, it’s so bad, it’s good joke below. Let’s go in to the weekend laughing.

Why did the doughnut go to the dentist? Because it needed a filling. What do you say to a dead robot? Rust in peace. Was the lion sorry after he ate the gladiator’s wife? No he was glad he ate her (say it slowly or very quickly) for best effect. I’m sorry if any of these inflicted actual pain in anyone who reads them. They certainly made my grandchildren groan 😂

What Kind of Jokes Are You Willing to Corrupt the Children With? 😂
Serious question… sort of. Adults have all kinds of humour — sarcasm, dad jokes, puns, silly nonsense, dark humour, slapstick, wordplay, ridiculous observations and jokes that probably should never leave the group chat. 🤣 But what kind of comedy would you actually feel happy sharing with children? I mean your own children, nieces, nephews, grandchildren, pupils, family friends’ children… basically any small human who might repeat the joke at the worst possible moment. Would you happily share: - silly jokes - puns and wordplay - knock-knock jokes - funny misunderstandings - slapstick humour - gentle sarcasm - “dad joke” level comedy - observational humour And where do you personally draw the line? What I’m really curious about is this: What makes a joke funny enough for adults, but still safe, clever and enjoyable enough for children? Because “family-friendly” doesn’t have to mean boring. So come on — what kind of comedy would you happily pass down to the next generation… and what would you definitely keep locked away until they’re 18? 😂

Do You Teach Your Children About Gardening? 🌱
I’m curious — do you involve your children in gardening? Do they help with things like planting seeds, watering flowers, growing vegetables, pulling weeds, or learning about insects and nature? I think gardening can teach children so many useful things without it feeling like a lesson — patience, responsibility, where food comes from, how plants grow, and even how to care for the environment. If you have children, grandchildren, nieces, nephews, pupils, or other little ones in your life, do you garden with them? And what do they enjoy most — planting, watering, harvesting… or just getting covered in mud? 😂🌻

A very big yes on this one. All of my children and grandchildren have grown and learned all sorts in my garden. Many happy memories with them learning about planting, growing, environment, ecology and so much more.

I am newly-retired and I am coming back to photography with a renewed interest to learning and improve in the company of other photographers.
