Parents search buckets, feasts, and “fill ups,” but our 2026-10-08 U.S. menu file lists two official kids meals (nuggets and tenders at $5.99 each) plus kid drinks and applesauce — not a kids bucket or Fill Up SKU. Below: every item in the kids category, KFC published calorie totals, side/drink estimates, and links to family feasts. Independent site — not affiliated with KFC.
Published meal calories are single KFC rows for the complete kids meal — not the sum of full-size fries, drinks, and à la carte nuggets in our explorer.
Searchers often mix family buckets with kids menus. Here is how we map those terms to audited data (2026-10-08) without inventing SKUs.
Two complete kids meals in the Kids Meals & Sides category — nuggets and tenders — each with a side and kid drink per menu copy.
8 / 12 / 16 pc family meals are shareable adult portions — bucket & feast guide. Not labeled as kids meals in our file.
No U.S. “Fill Up” product name in our menu research. Compare value meals below or verify regional names in the KFC app.

KFC publishes one combined calorie total per kids meal (170 / 350 cal). The calculator below sums full-size individual rows (e.g. individual fries, 35 cal nuggets) — totals are usually higher than the official kids meal because KFC's meal rows reflect kid portions, not our à la carte entries. Chocolate milk is not listed in our nuggets kids meal description (Capri Sun or 1% milk only).

Updated answers on KFC 2026 pricing, bucket combos, value deals, and nutrition facts.
Menu: All six kids-category items and prices from our research file (2026 Edition, 2026-10-08). We do not list kids buckets, feasts, or U.S. “Fill Up” SKUs because they are not in that file. Prices vary by franchise location, state, and delivery platform. Prices listed reflect typical 2026 nationwide U.S. in-store and drive-thru averages for informational purposes only. Multi-region U.S. KFC restaurant checkout audits, regional app menus, and 2026 national fast-food price benchmarks.
Nutrition: Combined kids meal calories from KFC U.S. nutrition documentation (2026-01-20). Side/drink explorer sums full-size individual rows (fries, per-nugget data, drinks). Those totals often exceed published kids meal rows (170 / 350 cal) because KFC's combined labels reflect kid-sized portions — not our à la carte nutrition entries.
