McDonald's has just announced a new festive Happy Meal, as well as a permanent menu change.
Currently, the iconic Happy Meal features either fish fingers, chicken nuggets, hamburger, cheeseburger or veggie dippers, as well as fries, or a fruit or vegetable bag, and a drink.
Priced at around £4.19, depending on the individual restaurant, each Happy Meal also comes with a toy or a book, the theme of which changes every few weeks.
Soon, a new festive-themed Happy Meal is coming to McDonald's - and it's guaranteed to go down well with the kids.

On Monday (17 November), McDonald's explained it is launching an Elf on the Shelf themed Happy Meal, just in time for the return of the pesky elves.
In each Happy Meal, there'll be one of 12 plush toys from the Elf on the Shelf range, or an original storybook featuring the characters.
McDonald's explained: "The Elf on the Shelf is arriving to Happy Meal nationwide from Wednesday, 19th November.
"For a limited time only, families can unwrap the magic of Christmas with one of 12 adorable, official plush toys from The Elf on the Shelf Santaverse, each with its own cheeky charm and festive flair, or a heartwarming original storybook featuring beloved characters from The Elf on the Shelf Santaverse to dive into.
"Every Happy Meal is a little bundle of joy, packed with merry spirit and perfect for sharing magical moments together."
The carrot sticks are also having a makeover, and will be transformed into 'Reindeer Treats' for the festive season.
If that wasn't exciting enough, there's a new, permanent option coming to UK Happy Meals, too.
In what's expected to be a very popular move for the fast food giant, McDonald's will be adding the Mayo Chicken as a menu option from Wednesday (19 November).
"The much-loved Mayo Chicken joins the Happy Meal menu - the perfect bite for little elves in the making," say McDonald's.
Earlier, we told you how the iconic Big Tasty is also set to make a return, with some exciting changes.
In case you've never sampled a Big Tasty, it features a beef patty, two slices of cheese, lettuce, onions and tomato, all sandwiched in a toasted sesame bun with that mouthwatering Big Tasty sauce.
The burger will return for the festive season, and for the first time, it can be ordered as a single or a double.
You can also add bacon, and what was originally emmental cheese has now been upgraded to white cheddar.
Meanwhile, it also features a new toasted quarter pounder bun and those having two patties will also get a third slice of cheese.
