Kinder mini treats have asked us to help the find Britain's best children's jokes. The jokes should be suitable for children aged under 11 (nothing too rude please ) and we're dividing them into three categories, knock knock, animal and teacher/parent jokes - hope that gives everyone enough leeway .

Once we've collected the jokes, Kinder will be whittling them down to the top 5 in each category and then we'll be asking you to ask your child/ren to vote for their favourite (with another £150 up for grabs then).

Everyone who sends in a joke (ideally one in each category) will be entered into a prize draw to win £150 of vouchers for a store of your choice.

You can send in your jokes here

Thanks and good luck.

And, of course, that should be 'so many'.

Is anyone else begining to feel that Edward Woodward must have had a terribly tough time at school?

CJCregg · 09/06/2009 23:09

I know, poor man. What were his parents thinking? On a par with a classmate of my brother's - Christian Church.

Spidermama · 10/06/2009 11:57

Very, erm, memorable.

Why did the boy eat his homework?
Because his teacher told him it was a piece of cake!

DS's fave, from a Horrid Henry book:

What did the Doctor say to the man wearing clingfilm?

I can clearly see you're nuts!

5inthebed · 11/06/2009 09:36

I submitted a joke, and want to do another one, but when I click the link it takes me to the MN homepage? Can you only submit one joke?

Why did the scarecrow win an award?

For being outstanding in his field!

Couldn't make it fit any of the categories!

carriemumsnet · 11/06/2009 09:59

5inthebed... that shouldn't happen

The poll is officially closed but if you want to post it here in the next hour or so I'll make sure it's included in the selection...

We've really enjoyed all these (as have our kids) - please keep them coming - for pure enjoyment if nothing else

We'll be putting the top 5 lists up soon so you can vote for your favourites and announcing the winner of the £150.

Thanks again

Seeing as my favourites have already been mentioned (Edward Woodward!) I submit:

Why do goblins have big ears?

Because Noddy won't pay the ransom.

Slickbird · 11/06/2009 10:28

I'm too late to post mine, so I'll just put it here;

What did one snowman say to the other?

Do you smell carrots?

Always makes me chuckle.

5inthebed · 11/06/2009 10:32

Oh ok, not to worry. I'm sure the one I submitted will be ok.

HEB7 · 11/06/2009 15:56

Animal Category:

Q: What did the whale say to the submarine?
A: I can see your bottom!

Has my 3 and 7 year olds in hysterics.
