Like universities, children's museums provide young people a place to study nature, an outlet to explore their creativity, and an excuse not to have a real job. Procrastinate constructively with today's Groupon to the Dreams of Trains, Toys, and Donkeys holiday-themed weekend at the Santa Fe Children’s Museum December 9-10. Choose from the following options:

Sunday admission is $2 for New Mexico residents with ID and $5 for nonresidents. Admission is free for children aged 12 months and younger.
Amid a bevy of interactive displays including a giant outdoor sandbox, the Santa Fe Children’s Museum rolls out three distinct events during its holiday-themed weekend for children and their parental units. In the nature center-turned-switchyard, hands-on exhibits recount how trains make their epic, coast-to-coast journeys. Visitors get a chance to construct scenic backdrops, such as the countryside or a grocery-store produce aisle, to serve as a setting for a small electric train’s travels.
A toy fundraiser the weekend of December 9 and 10 invites participants to drop off their gently used play items before Saturday’s sale; that afternoon a concert entitled The Donkey’s Dream transfixes kids, parents, and pack animals seeking material for their cover bands.
Groupon Says
The Groupon Guide to: Makeup
Faces already look great because they're the most detailed part of the body, but they can be made even fancier with the help of goo and paste applied directly to the skin. Put on these products to achieve a fully lacquered face:
Lip Gloss: Gloss is designed to make lips as slick and shiny as laminated paper, which is widely considered one of the world's sexiest forms of paper.
Lipstick: Lipstick only comes in the color red because it replicates the look of lips stained from eating delicious berries—the bloodiest part of any plant. When pressed against a surface, your lipstick mark can substitute for a signature or photo ID.
Mascara: In nature, eyelashes are used to capture bugs and bits of debris for the eye to eat. Paint lashes black with mascara to ensnare the greatest prey of all—another person's gaze.
Foundation: Foundation is a face-colored cream that you smooth on top of your face. By perfectly matching your foundation to your skin, you can cover up any dark circles, blemishes, or other people's faces that might have been grafted onto your skin.
