McDonald's will also be releasing monthly e-books, which are available on McPlay™ - McDonald’s Happy Meal app.
The kids then went to work on their food mobiles that helped them learn about the food groups and having a balanced meal. They were so proud of their creations and were eager to get them home to hang up as a daily reminder to eat right!
After hitting the play land for a little while everyone was ready for lunch. McDonald's had spoiled us with swag bags filled with books, a nutrition guide, and coupons for a FREE Happy Meal - Yipee! A special shout out to the Milton location for ensuring that ALL of our little ones including siblings and the extra participants that showed up received a complimentary meal as well!
McDonald's has come a long way in evolving the Happy Meal to reflect customers’ changing wants and needs. Happy Meals now offer options that include a Danino® Strawberry Yogurt, the choice of apple slices, small or mini-size French fries, and the choice of a low-fat dairy option like 1 per cent white or chocolate milk. It's a great option for families that are on the go and need to grab a quick meal or for an occasional treat!
Here's what our mamas thought about the event:
"Isabella's favourite book is Deana's Big Dream and she was reading it all day. She loved the fact that the last page is like a poster and was bigger then the book. The cherry on top was the fact that she got apple slices, juice, and a Happy Meal for lunch (a treat definitely). Overall, it was a great day!" IsabellaEmilia
"Ryan really enjoyed himself. I also like the idea of a book instead of toy. Ryan has been reading them everyday. I also love that the there is healthy options especially since my eldest doesn't like fries." MandyM
"This was a great event. My daughter enjoyed the crafts and the play area.. But most of all she loved the food and books. She loves to "read" and being able to do that while having some apples and yogurt and knowing these healthy snacks are available with the happy meals makes me feel less guilty about using McDonalds as an alternate for dinner when I need to. I hope they continue with the literacy component books are of greater value and use to children then the toys they get in the happy meals. Great job McDonalds" VanessaR
"It was great. I enjoyed how everything was incorporated into healthy eating....the books are a great treat instead of a new toy. I never let my son have McDonald's but now I see the healthy options available. We will definitely go back for a kids meal treat. So not only was the event fun for my kids but it was insightful for me." M. Moscoso
Thanx again McDonald's for including momstown Milton in your literacy launch. All of our participants left smiling from ear to ear!
