I used to be a baker, but I couldn't make enough dough.

My son came home from school yesterday looking a bit deflated. He told me he'd really struggled with his math test, especially the questions about decimals and fractions.

I told him he just needed to get to the point.

So I was watching a nature show with the kids about different kinds of trees, and we saw some really tall ones. My daughter asked me if all trees were good at remembering things.

I told her, 'No, only the ones with good mem-oaks!'

Why did the pencil go to the party?

To draw attention to itself.
