When my kids were young and we ever got delivered something in a large cardboard box, they would plead to play with it. They would sit on it and I would pull them round the house, or we made cardboard helmets with smaller boxes and painted them. Sometimes they would try to prank me by hiding in a box and pretend that it hadn’t been opened yet, hoping to give me a scare (I may have hammed up my shock so they could laugh more).. But yeah boxes are both pretty useful and fun.
So here is a stack of jokes about boxes that have been made by real people (not AI like the other stuff out there these days!). We made a couple ourselves and made sure all the jokes are clean and actually funny. At the bottom you can get a printable version of some of the jokes as well. Any box jokes you have, please ship them to us in the comments and we can add them to the list!
