As far as holidays go, American Independence Day is just not as funny as Halloween, Christmas or Thanksgiving. I base this bold statement on the number of holiday jokes we get from kids at www.JokesByKids.com. Halloween is the runaway winner, followed by Christmas and Thanksgiving.
Poor 4th of July barely makes a showing. But as summer approaches, and those cold weather holidays are a distant memory, we have to make due with the jokes we have at hand. So, without further ado, here are the top ten 4th of July jokes sent in by kids (and one grownup) from all over the country.
