This Freddy is very much alive and kicking. Freddy’s Frozen Custard & Steakburgers today announced the launch of its Kids Meals, as well as a new team of mascots. The head mascot is the illustrated stick-figure-esque FredHead, with fries for hair.

The kids meals, catering to child-friendly tastes, offers a choice of a cheeseburger, hot dog or chicken tenders, with a side of fries or applesauce. The chain has expanded its kids beverage selection to include individually packaged 1% milk, 1% chocolate milk and apple juice.

Kids Sweet Treats are also new to the menu, including  OREO® custard cookies, a Mini Create-Your-Own Sundae or Mini Dirt 'N Worms made with vanilla frozen custard. The new kids offerings are available nationwide today through drive-thru, in-restaurant dining and pickup or delivery.

The most fun part of any kids meal is the toy, and here choices include a new mascot-themed interactive selection of stickers, games, two-sided puzzles and board books. In addition to FredHead, the mascots also include Sundae, whose head is topped with whipped crème and a cherry, and Hot Dog, a smiling cartoon wiener dog in a bun. The chain has launched a  FredHead plush and other merch, available here.

Fast casual restaurant Freddy’s Frozen Custard & Steakburgers, founded in Wichita, Kansas in 2002, now has over 500 locations in 36 states across the country.
