McDonalds Is Adding More Happy To Their Happy Meals With A Giveaway


McDonalds is bringing more happy to their Happy Meals. I love that McDonalds is bringing healthier options to their Happy meals. Starting July 4th kids can look forward to a new side option. They can now choose Go-Gurt low fat strawberry yogurt along with the apple slices in place of a kid-size fry. This Go-Gurt low-fat strawberry yogurt is made exclusively for McDonald’s, contains 50 calories, has 25 percent less sugar than the leading kids’ yogurt and is made with natural flavor.This is good news for us parents who want our kids to eat healthy. 


McDonalds also has introduce a new Happy meal character called "Happy" to bring fun and excitement to kid's meals while also serving as an ambassador for balanced and wholesome eating. Happy will encourage kids to enjoy fruits, veggies, low fat milk, and beverages like water or juice.

  I took my boys to Mcdonalds and felt good about the Happy Meal that they ate. Below is a picture of what was in their Happy Meal. My youngest really enjoyed the GoGurt!






To celebrate this fun, McDonalds is giving me 20 Happy Meal coupons (good for one free meal) to share with my readers. I am giving away 4 coupons each to 5 winners. To win some, just enter on the Rafflecopter form below and good luck.

I doubt it, unless we do it without telling them. They usually have eaten all of their fries before we even get home.

Unknown said...

My son would definitely choose the go-hurt over fries. He is one of those rare kid who doesn't like French fries.

ivyvine1977 said...

My daughters would definitely choose Go-Gurt over fries, they love Go-Gurt!

Unknown said...

I love that McDonalds is making these changes for the better because let's face it, no matter how much one tries to avoid fast food - for some of us, it is an occasional necessary evil so changes like this make it just a little bit better when making that choice for your family.

Jodi said...

One of my sons would pick the gogurt, the other would choose fries!

Absolutely! They love go-gurt so should be no problem to them to choose that instead of fries. =)

If my kids had their way they would have Mickey Ds for breakfast, lunch & Dinner. Thankfully I call the shots.

My oldest son would not choose the Go-Gurt over fries, but he would take the second option available to children with the happy meals, at least it is this way in my area, and take the Go-Gurt over the apple slices. He doesn't particularly like apples, but loves other fruits.
