Modern moms are always looking to kill two birds with one stone. In this fast-paced environment,
how do we ensure our children are fed and stimulated whilst also enjoying some guilt free downtime
for ourselves? Sounds impossible right? Maybe not…
McDonalds happy meals has smartly found the solution with the re- introduction of their happy
reader range. The books are attractively packaged and makes kids excited to explore the stories.
The Tiny Detective range of books, which we received with our meals (“Do spiders have pets” and
“Why do stars twinkle”) were great. It centers around a family who creatively shows readers how to
learn through reading. It encourages asking questions and going to look for answers. It seamlessly
transports the reader to a land where being small, does not put limits on what one can achieve. This
fosters a can-do type of attitude in the young reader. The graphics are appealing and keeps kids
captivated in a clever way. The story lines are playful yet insightful. This very impressively attracts
young minds, making reading the next book an easier sell for mom.
When in desperate need of ridding yourself of some “mom- guilt”, may I suggest you visit your
nearest McDonalds for a meal and mental stimulation for your kids whilst you enjoy some “me-time”
over some McCafé coffee. I’m loving it!
