FOR ALL AGES
At Kidadl we pride ourselves on offering families original ideas to make the most of time spent together at home or out and about, wherever you are in the world. We strive to recommend the very best things that are suggested by our community and are things we would do ourselves - our aim is to be the trusted friend to parents.
We try our very best, but cannot guarantee perfection. We will always aim to give you accurate information at the date of publication - however, information does change, so it’s important you do your own research, double-check and make the decision that is right for your family.
Kidadl provides inspiration to entertain and educate your children. We recognise that not all activities and ideas are appropriate and suitable for all children and families or in all circumstances. Our recommended activities are based on age but these are a guide. We recommend that these ideas are used as inspiration, that ideas are undertaken with appropriate adult supervision, and that each adult uses their own discretion and knowledge of their children to consider the safety and suitability.
Kidadl cannot accept liability for the execution of these ideas, and parental supervision is advised at all times, as safety is paramount. Anyone using the information provided by Kidadl does so at their own risk and we can not accept liability if things go wrong.

If you thought there weren't many jokes about the brain, you'd be wrong. Just check out these funny brain jokes.
Your brain is made up of two halves: the right hemisphere and the left hemisphere, but scientists aren't sure exactly why our brains like jokes so much. What they do know is that if it's a new joke, we're more likely to laugh than if we've already 'got' the punchline or heard it before. You might think a joke about brain function could be dull, but you would be wrong. Just have a go with the ones below.

You need to know your audience will support you while you tell a story joke, but they're worth it.
The patient says to the doctor, "Doctor, will I be able to play the violin after my brain surgery?"
"Yes, of course," says the doctor.
"That's amazing," says the patient, "because I can't play the violin now."

One night in a pub, a man says to another man: "My friend came off his motorbike today."
"Oh, dear," says the second man.

"No wonder he came off then," says the second.
There are three friends: Shutup, Mind and Trouble. One day, Shutup and Mind can't find Trouble, so they decide to go to the police station to report him missing. Mind sits outside on a bench while Shutup goes inside.
"I'd like to report a missing person," says Shutup.
"Name?" asks the policeman.
"Shutup."
"Are you looking for trouble?" says the policeman.
"Yes, I am," says Shutup.
"Have you lost your mind?!" asks the policeman.
"No, he's outside."
