McDonald’s unveils Happy Meal Readers Programme

Good day to dear readers and visitors, how did you spend your weekend? It's Monday and I love to share with you about McDonald’s unveils Happy Meal Readers Programme.
McDonald’s has partnered with Cressida Cowell, world-renowned author of the bestselling How to Train Your Dragon’ books. Cowell has written an exclusive series of 12 hardback books for McDonald’s that will not be available anywhere else in retail. The books will be available in both English and Bahasa Malaysia specifically for the Malaysian market. McDonald’s is using its Scale for Good to instil a passion for reading and to provide a moment of closeness for families. 

By making reading fun, it is possible to inspire a lifelong love of reading among kids.
My son is turning 8 years old this June, it's about time he starts reading more and good to know the books will be available in both English and Bahasa Malaysia specifically for the Malaysian market. My son reading the book series in English. 

It's good bonding time for parent and child get together. We can share our thoughts on the books we read and talk about it. By making reading fun,it is possible to inspire a lifelong love of reading among kids.
To inculcate the culture of reading among Malaysians from a young age, it starts from parents. We can make a different, we are the models to our children. Remember the saying of what monkey see, what monkey do. We can set good example to our children, they are our future and leaders.
 
It's importance of carving out family reading time, explaining and learning on new words together. It would be fun learning on types of dragons we can find in the Treetop Twin Adventures. The book series, exclusive to McDonald's.

Good news to book worms as now you can find throughout 2019, McDonald’s will be releasing one book every month. Families have the option to choose a book or a toy with every Happy Meal purchased. Now you can opt for the book instead of toy, when you ordered the Happy Meal, you can informed the staff that you prefer the book. The choice is yours you prefer the English Language or Bahasa Malaysia. 


The first book of this series was released on 10 January this year, while the second book was released on 1 February.

To make the reading experience more fun, digital versions of the books are also made available through the Happy Studio app that can be downloaded on both the Google Play Store and Apple Store. Using the app, families can read along with the story and bring the book illustrations to life.

We can balance up our life as we know there's time where children need a break. The Happy Studio app is rated for children 3 years old and above.

Select the language English or Bahasa Malaysia, we selected the English.


 
There are fun games in the Happy Studio app that you can have fun playing naming a few. The making the of rocket, car, and pin ball. Fun time as parent and child can together explore the games.
I am happy seeing my son having a good time, playing making rocket and cars that he likes and think of how to pass the level.
 Don't worry it's not harsh for them, this given them the thinking hat to explore and create them. You'll be amazed on how they will react. 


There maybe chances of failing in the games but no worry we can encourage them to try again. This way we can think of what is the mistake and solutions of it.
