A drink: children can typically select from options like milk, juice, or soft drinks

Promotional Toys & Campaigns
Wendy’s often pairs its Kids’ Meal menu with themed promotional toys. For example:
-
DC Figurine Collection: A limited-edition series of mini DC Comics characters included with meals for a period.
-
Frosty Frights Series: Halloween-themed collectible toys featuring frost-inspired characters.
These promotions are time-limited and vary by location. The toy included with a Kids’ Meal may change accordingly.
Nutrition & Allergens
-
Wendy’s publishes a nutrition facts guide detailing calorie, fat, carbohydrate, protein, and allergen information for Kids’ Meal items.
-
For example, their 4-piece chicken nuggets and burgers are listed with calorie counts in the guide.
-
Because common ingredients like wheat, milk, soy, and egg are used in many items and preparation areas, cross-contact is possible. Customers with food allergies or sensitivities should consult the detailed allergen listings.
How to Order & Availability Notes
-
Kids’ Meals can be ordered in-store, via the Wendy’s app, or online where available.
-
Not all Wendy’s restaurants may participate in every toy or promotional run.

The specific menu offerings might vary by country or region (some menus include more or fewer options).
