McDonald's is perhaps the first company in the world to have designed a restaurant primarily for children. For over 30 years, McDonald's has targeted its ad campaigns at children. The corporation spends billions of dollars to hook children before its competitors do.
Becau they watch television, by the time most children are three years old, they can hum or sing whatever the McDonald's jingle happens to be. They also learn very quickly to recognize the exterior symbols of McDonald's: the huge yellow arches that
form an "M"; the large, friendly clown who ems to be welcoming them; and the lovely, little playroom where they can play in safety.in spite of

By the time they enter the restaurant, for the first time, they feel very comfortable. There are lots of bright colors, special menus, and little toys to take home. They are allowed to be noisy and to run around. And above all, they love the hamburgers, the French fries, the milk shakes, and the pop.
Like all restaurants, McDonald's wants repeat customers. They not only want "their" children to return week after week, they also want to e them year after year. And what better way than the birthday party? "Their" children are encouraged to hold their annual birthday party at McDonald's. They will have everything that is normally associated with a children's birthday party: ice-cream, pop, a birthday cake, balloons, and games. And what is more, there is no mess for parents to clean up.
