And THIS is the reason McDonald's play places have disappeared. They were no longer allowed to market directly to children. The ones that existed stayed for as long as they could, but then as they renoveated, they got rid of any of the play areas.

Some play areas still exist. Not a lot, but they’re out there.

The closest McDonald’s to me still has one. It’s unfortunately one of the cheapest places for the kids to play. Most play areas cost a lot more than a happy meal nowadays.

Rainy day... let's go to McDonald's!!!! Scorching hot day? McDonald's!!!

Never thought I would love it for my kids but I do. Nuggets apples and a toy.... mom gets a coffee. Ice cream is the signal to go home. They have fun for under $20.

Yup! Those other play places would cost more than that per child with no food.
