Most would you rather lists for kids recycle the same tired handful. These 72 are new, and each one is built to split a room down the middle, so kids have to defend their pick out loud. That's where the laughing and the thinking happen. Written for ages 6 to 12: nothing scary, nothing that singles anyone out, and toilet humour kept to a polite minimum. Read one out on a car trip, at dinner or as a classroom brain break, then ask the best follow-up there is: why?
