Kids get a kick out of it because mom and dad get chastised in a funny and fairly frequent manner for various infractions.

Snacks- Snacks abound in Hollywood. Try Hollywood Scoops for some hand dipped ice cream, or try Toluca Legs for turkey legs and hot dogs. Min and Bill’s Dockside Diner offers stuffed pretzels and milkshakes or you can try the ABC Commissary for a multi-ethnic blend of options.
