New McDonald’s Happy Meal Features Two Toys: One for You and One to Share


This holiday season, McDonald’s introduces a new Happy Meal that encourages kids to spread joy.

 

Launching on November 26, the exciting new Pet Simulator Happy Meal will be available at McDonald’s. Each meal includes two Pet Simulator toys—one for your child and another that is gift-wrapped for sharing with a friend.

With a selection of 18 unique toys, each comes with a figurine and stickers for customization. These toys are inspired by the popular Pet Simulator games on the Roblox platform, and customers can scan the toy’s packaging with a smartphone to unlock a “digital game experience,” according to McDonald’s.

 

“This special Happy Meal aims to inspire children to share during this season of giving. Sharing has always been a core value at McDonald’s, whether it’s fries, McNuggets, or a McFlurry. Now we’re offering our youngest customers a chance to share with their Happy Meal,” said Jennifer “JJ” Healan, McDonald’s vice president of U.S. marketing, brand, content & culture, in a press release. “This meal features two toys, one for personal use, and one for gifting.”

“Kids can choose to give their extra toy to a family member, brighten a friend’s day, or show kindness to a neighbor. It’s all about enabling children to experience the joy of giving this holiday season,” Healan added.

 

Customers can also support the Ronald McDonald House Charities, celebrating its 50th anniversary this year, by rounding up their order total.
