Check out five great deals that include half-price flowers, a discounted tutoring session and a fun, free event at Giant Steps that will have you 'chugging' along this weekend

Chuggington Event: Build miles and miles of track all around Giant Steps! Ride the railway with Wilson, Brewster, Koko and all the Chuggington characters - all for free! Decorate and color your own Chuggington train and color a Chuggington picture. A fun morning is planned at Giant Steps in Fairfield from 10 a.m. to noon on Saturday. Don’t miss out on free giveaways.

Hibachi at Half the Price: Don’t miss this delicious deal from Tombo Hibachi & Tiki Lounge in Fairfield. Chances are you’re not a trained hibachi chef, so you'll want to cash in on $45 worth of food and drink for just $22. That's half off a dinner that’s also a show.

Photo Session for a Good Cause: During the month of May, Classic Kids Photography is offering $150 mini shoots; and what’s more, 100 percent of your sitting fee goes directly to St. Jude.

Flowers at Half Price: Mother’s Day may have come and gone, but any time is a good one to get Mom or that special someone a beautiful arrangement of flowers.  And who doesn’t love flowers even more at half price? Get $25 for $50 worth of flowers at Paradise Garden redeemable online. Although the value of this Groupon can’t be applied toward shipping, the Paradise Garden website can help you determine those costs.

Summer Tutoring: Everyone loves summer fun, but kids can also keep their minds sharp during the lazy days of July and August before school resumes. Check out these tutoring packages from Tutoring Club in Stamford or Ridgefield: Four 60-minute tutoring sessions for $99 (a $335 value), or, for $49, get two 60-minute tutoring sessions (a $230 value). You can purchase this deal from LivingSocial through this Saturday.
