Kids on the Street is the third studio album by the American band Cherry Poppin' Daddies, released in 1996 on indie label Space Age Bachelor Pad Records.

Kids in the Street marks a departure from the band's previous works; instead of the usual multi-genre routine, Kids is predominantly straightforward, guitar-driven alternative rock, featuring less emphasis on brass instruments. The majority of the album is rock- and grunge-influenced, although there are brief touches of ska, country, funk, swing, and southern rock. Some fans and critics regard this as the Daddies' attempt to be more radio-friendly.

The success of Kids on the Street helped the Daddies to get picked up by major label Mojo Records.
