The early bird catches the worm, but the late bird alights upon the place where the worm once was and pens a haiku about spring. Marvel in birds' many wonders with today's Groupon to Free Flight, an exotic-bird park in Del Mar. Choose between the following options:
• For $5, you get two admissions to the park (up to a $10 value).
• For $49, you get a one-year family membership, valid for up to two adults and two children age 12 or younger (a $110 value).
Free Flight's tropical-plant-bedecked facility houses hyacinth macaws, vosmeri eclectus parrots, and other exotic birds. Pet, hold, or discuss airline baggage fees with the chatty winged creatures, who each possess a unique personality and vibrantly hued plumage. The passionate and knowledgeable staff aids in human-avian relations, helping guests interact with and learn about the numerous winged beauties. With a one-year membership, families enjoy unlimited visits to the park, providing ample opportunity to invent new birdcalls or to feed the gracefully moving fish living in the tranquil koi lagoon.
Groupon Says
Groupon Guide to: Baby-Sitting
Until child-labor laws are amended to allow adolescents to become doctors and lawyers, business-savvy youths will be restricted to earning a living as a babysitter. If you're stuck tending to babies, follow these tips to ensure you'll maintain steady employment:
- Arrive early so you have plenty of time to determine how long it takes to exit the house through the chimney, should you accidentally lock yourself in the home.
- Before the parents leave, reassure them their baby will be fine by swallowing the emergency-contact info sheet, then opening your mouth so they can see you aren't hiding it behind your tonsils.
- Leave the baby alone. Since babies aren't smart, it's likely the baby will mistake you for one of its parents and expect you to constantly cradle it, unless it mistakes you for a deer, in which case it will expect you to constantly lick it.
- Enforce a strict bedtime. Without sleep, babies' brains never shut down, allowing them to constantly acquire new knowledge and grow in size. If a baby's brain grows too quickly, that baby will be more uncomfortable when the parents dress it in a child-size football helmet.
