Of all the funny things kids say, their silly questions usually just take the cake. What should you do with a question like ‘Why do spiders run away when I fart?’ if not laugh at it? Admittedly, though, not all of the funny kids’ questions are hilarious in a ha-ha way, but rather baffling and confusing, evoking the only natural response to such nonsense - laughter. Still entertaining, but in a perplexing sort of way. And if your own kid’s funny questions aren’t enough for you or if you want to feel seen as being not the only one with a kid who has the most original ideas, this article is exactly right for you. Yup, this is our collection of the funny questions kids ask - do with it as you wish, but we can promise there will be laughter if you decide to read it!

You know what makes these questions truly hilarious? The fact that kids have no filter - they just go and ask about whatever pops into their minds. Add in the factor of childish naivete, and voila, you have a whole list of funny things kids say. And it seems that these funny kids never disappoint - from needing to know if rainbows are the food of plants to holding a firm belief that eyes don’t exist because you can’t see them, each question is funnier than the last!

So, the funny kids’ questions are just a bit further down, just where they are supposed to be. Once you are there, give your vote for the silly questions that tickled your funny bone and share this article with anyone who you think will find it relatable!

I had a children's book called The Vampire State Building. The First Son of the United States befriends a bunch of bats, an anteater, and I forget what else, and I think in one chapter they have to get to the top of the Empire State building past a series of progressively larger vampire bats. A supremely weird bit of surrealism.

Yeah. Children's literature is packed with Surrealism. Especially Dr. Seuss or Chris Van Alsberg (Sorry if I misspelled that).

Nope just you. I never think to look at that part. There's also a children's book by that name published in 2003.

Last day? How old do I have to be to reach that day? I *may* have missed mine 30 years ago.

I’ve wondered this same thing buddy. Best answer is look up that dress. Edit: I mean google the gold vs blue dress. Don’t actually look up girls’ dresses! Yikes! I could have phrased that better huh?

Just play him "Why does the sun shine?" By They Might be Giants. So catchy and fun plus science.
