McDonald's reveals how to make Happy Meals at home

McDonald's chiefs have come up with a brand new way for families to keep the kids entertained during lockdown.

The fast food chain has launched a new family entertainment hub aimed to help parents juggling home-schooling and work.

From board games to football skills to help keep your kids active, there’s hours of fun to keep the whole family amused.

And with families up and down the country creating the ultimate #McDonaldsAtHome with Drive-Thrus in their living rooms, McDonald’s is also offering a PDF of the official Happy Meal design for crafty parents to print out and use at home.

Just fill it with home-made chicken nuggets, fries and burgers for the perfect McDonald's "fakeaway".

Children can also do dot-to-dots, word searches, puzzles, colouring in, arts and crafts and even bring creations to life with Augmented Reality.

Featuring family favourites including Pokémon, Teeny Ty, UglyDolls, Snoopy, Mr Men and Little Miss Party, your little ones will have plenty to choose from.

Since launching in 2013, the McDonald’s Happy Readers campaign has delivered 90 million books into the hands of British children.

With resources for families needed online more than ever, you can now unwind with an exciting selection of downloadable eBooks such as ‘Snoopy Blasts Off!’ and ‘The Adventures of Amelia Fang and Friends’.

For football fans, Manchester United Women’s manager and former England star Casey Stoney is among other football stars working with McDonald’s as Fun Football ambassadors to provide easy to follow videos of skills and challenges.

With rain expected this weekend, there is no better time to settle in and curb boredom with McDonald’s Family Fun Hub.
