Together with my wife and daughter, we flocked to the venue as we were expecting it would be enjoyable and fun summer activity as the school is almost over.

Now on its 22nd year, Kiddie Crew Workshop is back for 6-12 year old kids to enjoy summer activities, the McDonald’s way.

By joining, participants will get the limited-edition Kiddie Crew Workshop shirt, bag, ID lace together with artwork materials, their very own set of badges every after activity and meals for all workshop days for just Php595.

More than the exciting Kiddie Crew goodies, kids will also get a chance to make new friends over the summer vacation.

My daughter is too big for 12 years old.  She had also outgrown being a kiddie crew as she was joining it every year in our place starting she was 7 years old then.

When she was with us, she was hesitant to participate.    But when she heard their graduation song and fun activities to be done, Jam reminisced those days when she was still a Mcdo kiddie crew.

Last year, there were almost close to 40,000 kids all over Philippines enjoyed the 5-day workshop with its several activities that help develop their skills and also instill important values of  hard work, discipline and teamwork.  These activities are:

  • burger-making
