Want to help your child learn more about safety?

If you do, then spend some time together on McGruff.org. Some parents probably remember McGruff, the crime fighting dog from the commercials back in the day. Well, this is his website. It’s bright and colorful and it’s designed to educate and entertain visitors, especially children, about safety and crime prevention. Easy navigation allows readers to visit sections including parent resources, internet tools (safe browser and online monitoring tool), downloads (banners, activity sheets, wallpapers), advice and tips, videos, stories and games. Everything on the site geared for kids is fun and teaches something without preaching. With summer and the end of the school year upon u our kids will have more free time. Make sure they’re prepared by going over some of the terrific info on this site with them. Check out McGruff online. That old dog knows lots of tricks.
