Summer time is activity time and for parents, like us, are involved in thinking different ways on how our kids will enjoy their summer vacation. Though there are plenty of things to do under the sun, still, I would prefer the indoors for my kids. That is for now. These indoor activities will definitely enhance their social skills and the best thing is make more friends.
I was glad that one of the known food chain in the country, McDonald's invited me and my family for the media launch of their McDonald's Kiddie Crew Workshop. It is their annual summer activity and kids love having this kind of activity.

Aside from the launch of their summer workshop they also introduce their newest brand ambassador for the workshop, the Sotto Brothers. It was fun and full activities. Our kids were able to experience the activities of the workshop. It was a week long activity that was squeezed into a few hours.








The activity is mainly becoming the crew of McDonald's in Kiddie format where they does what the actual crew does, like being a door greeter, a lobby person, a cashier and also the crew handling the drive thru. Aside from that experiences they also did the best part how to make their own cheeseburger and sundae mixes.

Here's a glimpse of what they did.











So Mommies and Daddies let your kids be part of McDonald's Kiddie Crew in this a week long workshop. They will learn a lot and develop their social skills.

After 5 years of celebrating and making every breakfast a day to celebrate, McDonald's continue the giveaway free breakfast with the so-called Philippine "National Breakfast Day." Who wouldn't know it perhaps every Pinoy expects it every year. And for McDonald's patrons it is a day look forward to whether it is via dine-in or drive-thru.
McDonald's aims for everyone to have the "best Monday ever" by stopping in the nearest participating McDonald's restaurant from 6:00am to 7:00am. This year, it's close to 450 restaurants who participated in this national event and each stores were able to giveaway free breakfast sandwiches via dine-in or drive-thru. Each customer was able to get either an Egg McMuffin, a Sausage McMuffin or McDonalds's newest breakfast offering, the Burgerdesal.

Every year, McDonald’s extends the experience of National Breakfast Day to groups of early risers – those who are unable to enjoy a good breakfast because they are up earlier than everyone else to work or serve. This year, McDonald’s makes it extra special and pays tribute to those who have helped others welcome new beginnings.

 

To celebrate the beauty of mornings and how they bring forth new beginnings, McDonald’s released an online video, telling the story of Mrs. Luzviminda Santiago, a public school teacher who dedicated her life to imparting lessons and providing support to students. The video highlights the importance mentors have in enabling and inspiring the community, and hopes to encourage viewers to pay tribute to those who have helped usher in a new beginning for them. The title of the video is "Good Morning, Teacher".

Take a look at the video, it really touches your hearts. Me, personally have a teary eyed while watching the video, I love the video and it is really timely now here in the Philippines.

This 2014 McDonald's Coca-Cola Modern Glass collection takes their customers' dining experience a notch higher.

We are very thankful that our Filipino customers continue to be excited to collect iconic Coke Glasses every year,” said McDonald’s Philippines President and CEO Kenneth Yang. “The Coke Glass campaign, which is already on its 7th year in the country, is a testament to the strong partnership of McDonald’s and Coca-Cola, here and around the world, as both companies continue to connect with customers by injecting fun into everyday experiences,” Yang added.

For Moms it is really hard to get the kids interact with other kids without the gadgets and people nowadays interact through social media, such as Facebook, Twitter and Instagram. Through these gadgets and smartphones it allows us to communicate online via messaging apps and social networking sites. And more often than not, more connections start happening in the digital world than in the real one.



This is why McDonald's and Coca-Cola, two iconic, global brands a long time partners, which champion happiness, enjoyment and togetherness, are taking a stand and encouraging people to stay offline a little longer and enjoy real-world connections. Although embracing online connections, McDonald's and Coca Cola believe it is our physical interactions which make our digital lives more meaningful - that real-life moments, such as hearing a story in person, receiving a warm hug and sharing a Mcdonald's meal and Coke drink face to face, are those which create lasting memories.
"Mcdonald's and Coca Cola have been partners for close to 60 years, together providing millions of customers great tasting food and beverages best shared together", said McDonald's Philippines President and CEO, Kenneth Yang. "Today, together as well, McDonald's and Coca Cola are taking a stand that real-life connections fuel our digital lives and enrich our relationships," added Coca-Cola Philippines President and General Manager, Guillermo Aponte.

Just like what I blog before when I am talking about McDonald's, our group is very relatable to what McDonald's vision. I have a group of Kita Kits Gurls, friends since we were still studying, they are my neighbors, kumares and bff. I named our group as Kita Kits Gurls because we usually see each other at McDonalds to catch up things that happening in our lives and to have chit chat just for a while.
Good news for us Kita Kits Gurls that McDonald's and Coca Cola are introducing the new BFF Bundles, an exciting menu offering designed to be shared among friends and family. With the BFF Bundles afor jus PhP399 for a group of three or Php599 for a group of four, customers can customize their bundled offers, choosing between their favorite McDonald's products, isn't it exciting?



With the  BFF Burger Bundle, customers can choose from seven of their favorite McDonald's Burgers and enjoy them with the new BFF Fries, big enough for the entire gang to enjoy together, and a refreshingly ice-cold regular coke for each one. Frined who prefer Chicken Mcdo can opt for the Bff Chicken Bundle and choose between 1pc Chicken Mcdo and McSpaghetti or 2pc Chicken Mcdo with rice, complete with BFF Fries and Regular Coke.

This is so amazing and yet enough for Kita Kits Gurls, that sometime we bring also our kids also to have a bonding moment ever. I think this will be a good time to call a kita kits, and I can't promise that I will not going to use a gadget, hahaha, I need a camera to capture the happy moments with my friends, but of course I promise to not to use just a little time other social network site during our bonding. It is really #BetterTogether.

In addition to that, Mcdonald's offers also their soft serve vanilla and chocolate syrup, the BFF Fries and Float Combo is theirs to enjoy for an affordable price of only PhP150. Very nice match, this is really affordable, and we really enjoy fries while having an update on my friends.
