Who started the Kiddie Meal Toy idea?

WHo started my Kiddie Meal Toy? (Like the toys that come in mcdonalds?)





Who Started it? What was the first toy? What resturant?|||Well, I'm older than McD. When I was a child the Chinese restaurants would always have a basket of little trinkets that the hostess would bring around to the table at the end of a meal for the "good" little boys and girls. Thanks for the trip down memory lane.|||Oh goodness, I don't know.





I think it was Mcdonalds since they have been around longer than most other restaurants.





I still remember when I was just a weeeeeeee little kid, I would get Mcdonalds Race cars as a kiddie toy. I still have them.





Boy do I sometimes miss being little.
