Deep in the tiny, but mighty, state of Rhode Island, nestled between towering lighthouses and sandy beaches, is a magical land of mini golf known as Windmill Wonders. Here, a wildly wonderful wizard named Wally the Whack-a-Ball Wizard reigns supreme. Wally, with his twinkling eyes, flamboyant robes, and a hat that's always crooked, adores the sound of laughter and the sight of kids having fun. Every weekend, kids from all corners of Rhode Island - from the bustling streets of Providence to the peaceful piers of Newport - flock to Windmill Wonders. They arrive wearing sneakers that blink with every step, as they clutch their lucky golf balls, ready to take on Wally's whacky world of wobbly windmills, tricky tunnels, and goofy gophers. There's giggly Gina from Greenwich, known for her ability to giggle at the silliest things, like when her golf ball takes an unexpected detour and lands in a flower bed. Then there’s Larry from Lincoln, whose golf ball has a knack for finding every water hazard - let's just say Larry now brings an extra towel! And don't forget about Marvellous Mandy from Middletown, whose incredible eye-hand coordination always lands her golf ball right in the hole. These Rhode Island kiddos, each with their own quirky style and infectious laughter, take on the mini golf course with bravery and boundless enthusiasm. They tackle each hole as if it's a dragon to be slayed, and celebrate every victory with a dance that would make Wally proud. Together, they transform Windmill Wonders into a place of hilarious hijinks, unforeseen fun, and memorable mini golf moments, proving every day that in the tiny state of Rhode Island, big fun awaits!
