Do Your Kids Like Happy Meals? They’ll LOVE These Boo Buckets

I feel like kids and McDonald's Happy Meals kind of go hand in hand.  I used to love to buy those (even as an adult) and grab the toys that came with it and put them all around my computer at my desk.  It was fun, and a mood brightener.

SPECIAL HAPPY MEALS

Every year, it's fun to get something different and seasonal with your Happy Meal.  The meals have changed a bit as McDonald's is trying to stay with the times and include some healthier choices with their Happy Meals.  Now, you can get either kids fries, or apple dippers or milk along with your choice of hamburger or chicken nuggets.

HALLOWEEN BUCKETS

At this time of year the container that the happy meal comes in goes along with the season of Halloween.  McDonald's Boo Buckets are back!  Well, back as in coming out this month.  The Boo Buckets will be out on October 21st.  To get one of these Boo Buckets, just order a happy meal.  They will be available through the Halloween season while supplies last.

Happy Meals are getting extra spooky this year! McDonald's is releasing FIVE new Boo Buckets designs in 2025 and I'm gonna need every single one of them!

NEW DESIGNS

In previous years there were just three designs.  And this year they are adding 2 ore designs!  These are so fun to collect and they can double as a candy collector for trick or treating on Halloween.  The three original buckets were the ghost, goblin and pumpkin.  And now a cat and a zombie have been added.  And they are all made to look fun and colorful.

BEEN AROUND FOR ALMOST 40 YEARS

These bucket were first introduced in 1986, and were all the same color - orange.  And they have returned from time to time, but not every year until the last few years when they got a bit cuter and more colorful.  Just basically more fun and creative.  Creepy-cute is the name of the game for these buckets.

Happy Halloween!
