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 visiting my friend who's a master carpenter, and he showed me his latest woodworking project - a beautiful wooden boat. He spent months crafting every detail, from the hull to the sail. As I was admiring his work, I asked him how he planned to propel it through the water.

He just smiled and said it was a 'shore' thing.

So I was helping my kids with their homework and we were learning about different types of clouds, like cumulus and stratus. My son asked me if all clouds were good at hiding things. I thought for a moment and then said

they're great at covering their bases!

Why don't scientists trust atoms?

Because they make up everything!
