If the cancellation of Bill Moyers Journal has left your little one frownful and forlorn, today's Groupon promises to happify her tiny face. For $15, you get five daily passes ($6.50 each) for kids ages two to 17 at Jungle Java, a $32.50 total value. Your Groupon is redeemable for all-day admission at the Ann Arbor, Canton, or Farmington Hills locations of the indoor playland. Daily admission for adults and children less than 12 months is free, and children ages 12 months to 23 months cost $3.

The indoor-fun wonderland offers a safe environment for your small fry to burn off excess foie gras calories while socializing with their contemporaries. Older children can evade unwelcomed affections from their neighborhood admirer by escaping into one of Jungle Java's colorful mazes, riding to a freedom tunnel via zipline, or scaling a rock wall with their nemesis nipping at their heels. For tots under the age of three, a special Toddler Safari is fully equipped with miniature slides and a crawlable playscape reserved exclusively for the little ones. All of Jungle Java's equipment, like the lush flora of the Amazonian jungle, is thoroughly cleaned and disinfected each day.

As growing humans make a strategic play for domination of the jungle's child kingdom, adults can relax on a plush leather couch in the café, sipping on a freshly steamed latte ($2.30 for 12 oz.) or noshing on one of the general menu's healthy selections, such as the spicy black-bean wrap ($5.50) or the chicken Caesar salad ($5.25). Get this Groupon to spend some quality time with your niece and nephew while treating your sis to some much-needed time alone, or grab some java and reading time while your little ones expel enough energy to take naps when you get home. Make sure tiny feet and toes are covered in socks before setting children free in the play area.

• Great place for the kiddos to burn off some energy, esp. in the winter months. – emeril I., Yelp
• I love the idea of going somewhere to play inside with the kids and get a coffee. – nickemom, Lila Guide
• This is a great place to let the kids run around while you sit and enjoy coffee. Their frozen coffee is very delicious, I would recommend, and if your [sic] not a coffee drinker they also have smoothies, pop, water and they have food which is delicious! – Colleen C., Insider Pages
