G2 has reached the age of nonsense jokes. You know the kind that don't make any sense but makes the teller chortle gleefully. Yeah...those.
G2: Knock, knock.
Mom: Who's there?
G2: Banana.
Mom: Banana who?
G2: That banana just got squished!!!!
(maniacal laughter)
G2: Knock, knock.
Mom: Who's there?
G2: Banana (they always start with banana?).
Mom: Banana who?
G2: Now there's TWO bananas!
(more laughter)
He can tell real jokes, but his repertoire is limited--and, somehow, they just aren't as funny in the eyes of this particular 6 year old.
Moo--who adores her older brother--has gone from favored straight man to copycat extraordinaire. Well...at least she gets the structure correct.
Moo: Knock, knock.
Mom: Who's there?
Moo: Apple!
Mom: Apple who?
Moo: Apple on your HEAD!
(giggle, giggle)
It's going to be a looooonnng week.

Maybe if you can convince them to tell the jokes to each OTHER instead of to you......
Those jokes do sound cute, at first. But you're right: it's REALLY hard to keep pretending that they're funny after more than three of them. Cute little Moo, with her apple joke. so cute.
