Mohini is a frightening place. It is a mall entirely deovted to children. They pump in child friendly music, have bright, shiny signs everywhere and noisy little computers for the kids to use. I end up here at least three times a week, running different errands for the girls. I'm not sure how much more of this place I can take.
The up side of this horrible place is: 1) All the activities that I can take the girls to. I just drop them off and get an hour and a half all to myself. 2) Some of the child friendly songs are from the musical Newsies, which I LOVE! So I always get excited when I get hear those songs. 3) A child friendly movie theatre. The third one is a good and bad thing. I'm always excited when we decide to go see movies, and then the movie starts and it's in Turkish. Always a let down. We recently saw a movie about crime fighting guinea pigs, that I'm not sure would have been that much better in english, but the girls enjoyed it.

Trust me, the crime fighting guinea pigs would not have been any better in English. Actually its entirely possible that watching it in Turkish enhanced the movie. I am basing these opinions solely on the trailers that I saw a couple months ago but I'm pretty sure I'm not wrong about this.
