Note**this is a bit of a duplicate post but wanted to combine the post with the video so I can keep it organized!

Kids are still crazy for McDonalds Happy Meals and it’s mostly for the surprise toy!

Of course you can go to your local fast food joint and grab one or you can let your creative juices flow and make it yourself!

It’s so easy and I promise you the kids will be so excited for something different for dinner or lunch! You can also feel good giving them something that’s a healthier version of the real thing!

I made the chicken nuggets myself and here’s the recipe I used!

For the fries, I cut up apples for slices and used this template for the fry box.

For the box, there are different templates I saw on line, but I just ordered these boxes from Amazon because I thought it would just be easier! Also I envisioned future crafty uses for them. Here’s the link if you want to copy!

Add the drink and the fun toy and you’re good to go! Watch your kids be surprised and happy you did something different for them!

Hi, my name is Jill. Welcome to my blog! I am a stay at home mom to three girls.
I have a lot of thoughts so you can keep scrolling to read my latest posts! We also like to bake easy, fun cakes and the like. I am not a professional baker and this is not the place for knock your socks off, magazine cover cakes! But my baked goods are so easy to make anyone can try them!

I am also trying to take steps to live a better, healthier, and more relaxed life. I hope to start writing about that soon!

Every day is an adventure filled with activities, ups and downs, fun times, and crappy times. Keep on scrolling and read my stuff! Would love to hear what you think!
