  Mighty Kids Meal - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Mighty Kids Meal is a meal from McDonald's designed for preteens, who are older than those who might eat a Happy Meal, but still not hungry enough to eat from the full menu.
McDonald's began offering the Mighty Kids Meal in 2001, but the concept was originally developed by Burger King in the form of its Big Kids Meal.
Earliest commercials for the Mighty Kids Meal involved kids being put in infantile situations.

As McDonald's celebrates 25 years of bringing toys and food to kids across the globe via the Happy Meal, we thought we'd look into the kids' meal phenomenon that seems to have grown faster than the average cholesterol level.
No kids' meal would be complete without a premium toy, that little piece of plastic that entertains kids while they eat but is often thrown away soon after.
From the first Circus Wagon Happy Meal with a stencil, eraser, ID bracelet, wallet, spinning top and puzzle book, to the Ty Teenie Beanie Babies that became treasures to countless collectors, the Happy Meal has done its part to make kids' meals more about fun than food.

 McDonald's aims advertising to get kids' market growing
According to Port Washington, N.Y.-based NPD Group, 37% of all kids' meals were ordered from a car in 2000, up from 31% in 1993.
The fact that Happy Meal sales are growing at a slower rate than in the past is consistent with national trends.
"On average, the annual growth rate (of kids' meal consumption in restaurants) was running between 5% and 8%, but last year it was 1% to 2%," said Harry Balzer, vice-president of NPD Group, which tracks sales patterns in numerous retail categories.

 Student X
In a society with a bad case of "hurry sickness," quick, delicious meals are too often seen as the perfect remedy.
It provides a quick family meal in a fun atmosphere, is relatively cheap, requires no cleanup, and cheers just about any kid.
Kids should be aware that bright colors and a cheerful atmosphere may be masking a less savory situation.

 McDonald's Wrong to Use Narnia Film to Sell Unhealthy Food
The giant burger chain is including Narnia figurines and picture books with its “Mighty Kids Meal,” which features such high-fat, high-cholesterol food items as a Double Cheeseburger or a half-dozen Chicken McNuggets.
For example, if a kid buys a Mighty Kids Meal consisting of a Double Cheeseburger, small French fries, and a jug of low-fat chocolate milk, he or she will consume a whopping 850 calories, 36 grams of fat, 90 milligrams of cholesterol, and 1,430 milligrams of sodium.
A wide range of scientific studies suggest that moving to a low-fat, plant-based diet would dramatically improve our children’s health, reducing their risk of obesity and diabetes and, as they reach adulthood, the danger of heart disease.
