You are an evil genius. Not only do you advertise frequently on the Disney Channel, but it also appears that you sponsor every single show on public broadcasting. We cannot escape you. Even when I insist that my kids watch the educational shows, there you are- sponsoring them. We don't even have a Chuck E. Cheese within 100 miles of our town, yet my kids instantly recognize your restaurant whenever they happen upon one. Last week, for example, we were visiting my in-laws in Delaware. They saw the sign and the large mouse and begged me to take them inside. I caved. Now I must admit, we all had a good time. The kids especially enjoyed playing the hands-on games like skee-ball and whack-a-mole. And they liked getting to pick a prize with the tickets that they won. Overall the experience was nice- except the food. It was pretty bad. Nevertheless, I feel that you need to tone down the advertising a bit. Upon leaving your establishment, my kids immediately began asking me if I'd bring them back the next day. I said something like "Don't you want to do something else? Why would you want to go back to the same place two days in a row?" To which my five-year-old replied "Mom, but this is where a kid can be a kid". Really? He's quoting your tagline? Well played, Chuck. Well played.
