Your McDonald's order is about to get a lot cuter thanks to a new toy that'll soon be featured in kid' Happy Meals. 

The fast food giant is partnering with the cute and adorable Squishmallows to bring a "360-degree experience" to each Happy Meal, the toy brand's parent company, Jazwares, said in a news release.

There will be a total of 24 Squishmallows characters to collect, the release said, and each McDonald's location will reportedly feature 10–12 characters. Fourteen of them come with an exclusive playlist from Universal Music Group that matches the Squishmallow's personality that you can access via a QR code.
