Happy Father's Day from Kids First Pediatrics! We're keeping the annual tradition alive with this year's list of groan-inducing “dad jokes.”

I went to the aquarium this weekend, but I didn’t stay long. There’s something fishy about that place.

I gave my handyman a to-do list, but he only did jobs 1, 3, and 5. Turns out he only does odd jobs.

Who won the neck decorating contest? It was a tie.

Where do rainbows go when they've been bad? To prism, so they have time to reflect on what they've done

Dogs can't operate MRI machines. But catscan.

I'm so upset—my barber said he can't cut my hair any longer. He can only cut it shorter.

Why did the employee at the calendar company get fired? He took a day off.

Two windmills were sitting on a hill. One asks the other, "Do you have a favorite song?" The other replies, "Well... all my life I have been a heavy metal fan.”

The owner of the tuxedo store kept hovering over me when i was browsing, so I asked him to leave me alone. He said, “Fine, suit yourself.”

I don't trust those trees. They seem kind of shady.

My 4 year old asked me “Dad, can you put my shoes on?"
I said, “No, I don't think they'll fit me.”

A guy walks into a bar... and he was immediately disqualified from the limbo contest

What's the best way to save your dad jokes? In a dadda-base

Kids First Pediatrics celebrates all of our patients and all of their accomplishments.

Today is World Down Syndrome Day and is a celebration of the uniqueness of people with Trisomy 21.

These individuals have 3 copies of chromosome 21, which is why we celebrate today 3/21!

Information from the American Academy of Pediatrics on vaccine safety.

Vaccines for kids are studied closely before the American Academy of Pediatrics recommends them. Safety evidence is gathered when a new vaccine is made and after it is authorized.
