The American fast food restaurant chain has announced that their latest Wendy’s Kids’ Meal promotion comes with a The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge on the Run clip inspired by the film!

"This colorful collection is based on The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge On The Run featuring characters like they’ve never been seen before—as kids meeting at Camp Coral and looking cuter than ever!," says Wendy’s.

The fast food chain's latest promotion features all seven main characters - SpongeBob, Patrick, Gary, Squidward, Sandy, Mr. Krabs, and Plankton - as fun, figural clip-ons that kids can carry anywhere. Inside each of the clips, kids will find a cutout paper figure and a camp badge featuring the character.


For even more fun, Wendy's has also unveiled an exclusive The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge On The Run printable activity pack, crammed full of activities such as a wordsearch, coloring in sheet and maze, all themed after the film. Download now at https://www.wendys.com/current-kids-meal-toys!

This isn't the first time Wendy's has partnered with Nickelodeon for a SpongeBob SquarePants promotion. In 2001, Wendy's had a sponge-tastic SpongeBob Kids' Meal promotion which came with a range of SpongeBob toys to celebrate the release of the special "SpongeBob's House Party" ("Party Pooper Pants").
