Technically, Berry is a McDo veteran, with a Kiddie Crew stint under her belt.
But there's nothing like re-learning how to make a McDonald's cheeseburger inside Kidzania, only the coolest place for Berry and her friends these days.
Pay 15 Kidzos to learn how to make a McDonald's cheeseburger, but the kids get to bring their burger home, or eat it right in Kidzania
McDonald's in Kidzania may look like a typical McDonald’s counter, small by regular standards even, but right by the side is a kid-sized kitchen where kids 4 to 14 years old get to learn how to assemble their own McDonald’s Cheeseburger.
McDonald’s President and CEO Kenneth Yang, Alonzo Muhlach, Play Innovations Industry Partner Director
Cecille MariƱo, and Play Innovations President and CEO Maricel Pangilinan-Arenas formally open McDonald’s Burger Shop with a ribbon-cutting ceremony
All the kids who enter the McDonald's Burger Shop are taught the same procedure that real crew members use in preparing their iconic Cheeseburger every day in over 460 McDonald’s restaurants nationwide.

The "training" begins with the burger shop staff requiring the kids to put on a hairnet and an apron, and then briefing them on what they will learn inside.
Before they handle food, they are asked to wash their hands, a lesson in cleanliness and hygiene!
Then the beef of the activity begins - assembling the pure beef patty, a slice of American cheese, tangy pickles, minced onions, 5 dots each of ketchup and mustard, between two toasted buns - kids will find it a lot of fun!
“Making a McDonald’s Cheeseburger is an exciting activity in itself, but the real treat for kids and their parents is the experience and values learned while doing the activity. Together with KidZania, our hope is for kids to learn and appreciate the importance of hard work and responsibility, at the same time building their social skills and self-confidence,” said McDonald’s Philippines President and CEO Kenneth S. Yang.
“KidZania Manila is a place
where kids can do big things and let their creativity run
free,” said
Maricel Pangilinan Arenas, State Governor for KidZania Philippines.
“Here, they get to experience how a community operates, discover
different careers, and learn while having fun by working closely with
real-world brands that they know and love, like McDonald’s.”
I might as well let you know too that there's a real McDonald's restaurant right at Park Triangle, on the ground floor close to the Kidzania entrance, and right across the LEGO store. Just in case you're jonesing for a full on meal after following the kids as they navigate the fun maze that is Kidzania.
KidZania Manila is located at Park Triangle, Bonifacio
Global City. Open from 9AM-4PM on Mondays to Thursdays, and 9AM-2PM and 3PM-8PM on
Fridays to Sundays. For more information, visit http://manila.kidzania.com.
While at Kidzania, drop by McDonald’s Burger Shop and share
your photos at McDonald’s official Facebook
page, https://facebook.com/mcdo.ph. KidZanians may also tag @McDo_PH on Twitter and
Instagram with the hashtag #McDoatKidZania.
McDonald’s takes the fun outside their shops too,
providing an opportunity to make a difference in the lives of kids
in need through the Ronald McDonald House Charities or RMHC. For every
purchase of a McDonald’s Happy Meal, 50 centavos is donated to RMHC in
support of its flagship programs, Ronald McDonald Read To Learn and
Ronald McDonald Bahay Bulilit.
