Build a tabletop mini golf course, then aim the mechanical club and putt for points. Hitting the 'tree poppers' makes them fly, which usually starts a lot of laughing and "let's try that again."
Build-together tips for grown-ups
- Let your builder lead: they read the next step, you hand over the pieces.
- Along the way, ask: "Which angle gets the ball past the ramp? Let's guess before we putt."
- If a piece won't sit right, that's normal. Pause, compare with the picture and try again together.
