Scientists agree the only reason adults have children is so they have a socially acceptable reason to visit amusement parks, eat at novelty pizza arcades, and see movies with Shreks in them. Put some fun in the oven with today's family-friendly Groupon: for $8, you get three games of mini golf for two people at Putt-Putt Fun Center (a $17 value).

An arena of outdoor amusement awaits patrons at the Putt-Putt Fun Center, where an 18-hole mini golf course challenges fun-seekers of all ages. Settle family feuds on the animal-themed greens, where club-wielders can bludgeon colorful balls to their hearts content while avoiding the waterfall, where balls are tempted to cliff dive but never re-surface. Along the way, full-size players can keep tabs on their mini-golf score, engraving mini strokes onto mini score cards with mini scoring pencils, while conveniently overlooking mini mulligans––if no one sees. Today’s deal covers the cost of play for you and friend, and Groupon holders can buy up to two more as gifts, so find a flock of friends and enjoy your Groupon on a birthday, family reunion, or lumberjacks' night out.
