Singapore Children's Society is the adopted charity of Swensen's for 2006.

"Cars," the seventh animated feature to be created by Pixar Animation Studios and released by Walt Disney Pictures, is a high octane adventure comedy, in which Lightning McQueen, a hotshot rookie race car who was en route across the country to the big Piston Cup Championship in California, finds himself unexpectedly detoured and ends up in the sleepy town of Radiator Springs on the historic Route 66, where he learnt that life is about the journey, not the finish line.

Swensen's has introduced a specially designed "Cars" kid's menu, and will be serving all "Cars" kid's meals on a "Cars" dinner plate, a movie collectable that is exclusive to Swensen's in Singapore. Diners who wish to keep the exclusive "Cars" plate can purchase it at $4.00 with each kid's meal purchased, or at its normal price of S$6.90.

There are six specially designed Disney "Cars" kids meals for young diners to choose from, namely:
- Snazzy Fish - S$8.60
- Texas Wings - S$8.60
- Rally Meatball Pie - S$6.80
- Fun Pizza - S$6.80
- Speedy Pasta - S$7.80
- Top Dog - S$8.30

Each of the kid's set meal comes with a mini ice cream sundae, made up of bubblegum ice cream topped with coloured jimmies, whipped cream and cherry, and a collectable "Cars" trading card. The trading cards come in a total of five designs, featuring characters in the "Cars" movie; Lightning McQueen, Ramone Octane, Tow Mater, Lugis and Sally Speedy. Kids who have collected all five designs, will stand a chance to win exclusive "Cars" merchandise. The holder of each trading card will be entitled to a 20% off "Cars" ice cream cakes (8 different designs) till 31st July 2006.

While the kids are having fun with the "Cars" trading cards and kid's meals this June school holidays, the adults have not been forgotten. With every purchase of S$30 in Swensen's, adult diners will get a chance to win a family trip for four to America and get to visit the legendary Route 66 and experience Lightning McQueen's journey in real life.

To announce the winners and end off a whole month of fun and excitement, Swensen's will be organizing a family event on the 2nd July (Sunday) at Swensen's first outlet, Thomson Plaza. There will be "Cars" colouring contest, clowns and many fun activities. The first 10 kids with the full set of "Cars" trading cards will win a total worth of S$1,500 "Cars" merchandise.
