McGruff's Safety Tips for Kids & Parents

Be Safe on the Streets

KIDS - There is safety in numbers, always walk with a friend. Don't walk alone, don't take shortcuts and don't talk to strangers. Click Here to View/Print the Safe Strangers Worksheet - Adobe PDF

KIDS - Always be aware of your surroundings, don't wear headphones while riding your bike or walking.

PARENTS - Develop a secret password that only your family knows. Tell your kids that they should NEVER go with anyone unless they know the secret password. Make sure to tell you kids that they should NEVER share this secret password with anyone.

Be Safe on the Internet

KIDS - NEVER give out personal information online, you NEVER know who you are talking to. Click Here to View/Print the Scruff Internet Safety Maze - Adobe PDF

KIDS - Don't talk to strangers!

PARENTS - Keep your computer in a busy area of the house so kids can be supervised while online.

PARENTS - Consider using a filter, blocking or ratings system on your computer.

PARENTS - Have your kids sign McGruff's Internet Safety Pledge. Post it by the computer so they remember how to stay safe online. Click Here to View/Print the McGruff Internet Safety Pledge - Adobe PDF

PARENTS & KIDS - Visit iKeepSafe.org to Meet McGruff's friend Faux Paw, the Internet Safety Cat.

Be Safe on Your Bike

KIDS - Wear your helmet. Helmets can reduce head injuries and in many states it is illegal for kids not to wear them. Click Here to View/Print the Bike Safety Quiz - Adobe PDF

KIDS - Wear bright clothing. Bright and light colored clothing makes you more visible. If you ride your bike after dark, be sure reflectors on your bike, helmet and clothing.

KIDS - Ride with a friend. It is more fun and safer because help is there if needed.

KIDS - Learn the rules of the road. Click Here to View/Print the Being Safe with Signs Worksheet - Adobe PDF
