Q&A for How to Have Fun at a Mall

Usually, you can use your judgement. Certain rules should be posted in your mall. Always be respectful of others around you and mall employees. Don't be too disruptive, or make a mess.

That depends on what the mall has to offer. If there is ice skating, try that. Maybe grab a bite to eat, or try and find a store you both like. Go to a movie or just hang out and talk.

Play some games, as mentioned above. Try to find some makeup or clothes on sale for super cheap. Fun toys and other trinkets are also pretty inexpensive.

What do you prefer? Grab a bite from McDonald's or KFC. Look at all the menus as see what sounds good. See if anyone is giving out free samples.

Have fun with your friends, have some good laughs, and make memories. Don't focus so much on what you can and cannot buy. You may have to lean more on the free samples side though!

Go to your mall's website. Usually there will be a link that says "Directory" or "Stores." Click on that and count the listings.

Ask the adult to walk a little ways behind you, or even to give you a little freedom to walk around by yourselves for a while. Really, as long as you're not doing anything you know the adult would disapprove of, you can just pretend they're not there.

Then just ignore them. You don't have to follow absolutely every step in the article in order to have fun at the mall.

Try suggesting an activity in the mall, such as going to the movies. If there’s no real activities in your mall, try suggesting a game you could play such as truth or dare, hide and seek, or a scavenger hunt.

Really, it depends on your interests and the nature of the trip. If you're going for a makeover then the salon would be a great idea but if you're going for more well-rounded fun, then the cinema is a good idea. It really depends on what you and your friends would love to do.

It does not matter. Be yourself. It is just their opinion. It may not seem funny for you, but it may seem funny for someone else, which is why they laugh. Just ignore it and have your fun - you could even poke out your tongue at them to make it more amusing and laugh at yourself with them.
