$279 for a Diver-Certification Class with Gear Rental ($575 Value)

The open-water certification course prepares divers for underwater explorations across four academic sessions, at least four confined-water practices, and seven open-water dives. Inside the classroom, future divers learn essential skills for diving, including how to prepare their equipment and how to navigate potentially dangerous situations. The confined-water sessions give divers a chance to test their classroom-taught skills in a safe environment. As the classes edge toward the finish line, divers take part in a series of open-water dives with their teachers that culminates with a certification test. All life-support equipment is provided for each class, and students receive their own scuba-quality mask and snorkel to keep.

The Groupon Guide to: Tricking Your Kids into Eating Vegetables

Kids don't want to eat vegetables because vegetables aren't fun. Make legumes laughably fun with these tips for preparing vegetables:

  • Put black beans on circular slices of potato to give your kids healthier "chocolate-chip cookies."

  • Cut corn off the cob and offer their picky palates some "rotten goblin teeth."

  • Mash yams and your young ones will be thrilled to eat "a very sick man's innards."

  • An avocado kind of looks like a hand grenade.

  • Remove the strings from celery. Kids will voluntarily eat celery if it's not strung like some kind of ridiculous violin.

Mom, can I have seconds of goblin teeth?
