Enjoy The Ride Records and Enjoy The Toons Records in conjunction with the National Crime Prevention Council proudly present McGruff's® Smart Kids.
Available on vinyl for the first time, McGruff's® Smart Kids was originally released on cassette tape in 1986. It has been mentioned on numerous podcasts, but the original cassettes have been hard to find in the wild. The audio was finally located and painstakingly remastered decades later to reissue this sought-after 80s treasure.
McGruff's® Smart Kids includes the viral hit "Cocaine & Crack," along with cult classic favorites "Inhalants" & "Alcohol." Music by Mike Hawes; Lyrics by Robin Nelson and Tim Sloan.
Vinyl is limited to 500 across two color variants, Bone and Black. Each record has a die-cut bite mark, because we know McGruff® loves to Take A Bite Out Of Crime!® There is also a double-sided insert with Smart Kids Club & Promise Card in each record! Cassette tapes are limited to 250 and come in a black shell. The fold-out insert includes a double-sided Smart Kids Club/Promise Card.
STRICT LIMIT OF 1 ALBUM PER CUSTOMER on warehouse restocks. If you do not follow the rules, your order will be canceled!

McGruff the Crime Dog® and NCPC envision a world where people feel safe and are active participants in keeping themselves and others from becoming victims of crime. Today’s world contains an increasing array of threats to public health and safety. Deaths from guns, illicit drugs, and automobile fatalities from illegal acts are driving a historic decline in U.S. life expectancy. Public support and involvement in crime prevention will reduce this trend. The transformation to a digital age can and must include new ways to harness technology to enhance the physical, financial, and mental security of the public.
These releases will begin shipping next week. Please be patient, once your order ships you will get tracking information. Please be aware that Priority Mail orders WILL SHIP FIRST, so if this is needed ASAP for a gift then please choose Priority Mail. This release, upon request, can be shipped outside of the jacket to avoid seam splits. This album comes mailed inside of the jacket sealed with shrink wrap on the outside.
To clarify, It will come packaged in a full-color jacket (as pictured) sealed with plastic wrap UNLESS requested in the notes of your order to "open the album & place outside of the jacket prior to shipping." This is a good way to prevent potential seam splits along the top of the jacket due to careless handling by the post office, and this service is free of charge. If you forget to write in the notes of your order about shipping outside of the jacket, PLEASE EMAIL US WITH YOUR ORDER NUMBER and ask us to update the notes on your order to ship outside of the jacket. Release days are hectic, especially the first few hours, so please give ample time for a response. We will get back to you as soon as possible. Thank you
