Some things are more family friendly when done on a smaller scale, such as playing golf or sinking battleships. Enjoy an activity at its optimal size with today's Groupon: for $6, you get one admission to the corn maze and one round of mini golf at T-Burg Mini Golf in Trumansburg (a $12 value). This Groupon expires October 28.

The corn maze's 3.5 miles of twisting pathways trace a pictorial pattern as they encircle wandering patrons, who usually take 45 minutes to two hours to re-emerge. Customers equipped with a flashlight can up the ante by navigating the agrarian labyrinth in the dark on Friday and Saturday nights or by evading its extraterrestrial caretakers when they descend to prune the walls. T-Burg Mini Golf challenges pintsize putters with an artfully landscaped 18-hole course and a corn maze with 3.5 miles of paths. Entrants of any age can nudge golf balls through sculpted green slopes and around mini hazards while sharpening their botanical know-how with views of more than 2,000 native plants. Like a downed gladiator who suddenly remembers the blowgun in his pocket, the course's 19th Plinko hole can remix player rankings moments before the game's conclusion.

Though not included in today’s Groupon, customers can sojourn to T-Burg’s arcade, where they can master games of skill to exchange tickets for such prizes as plush toys and private island properties. T-Burg's snack bar also calms stomach gurgles with a reserve of snacks and ice cream.
