There is a page based on this minigame in the [[Miracle Book]] called "Lawn Mowin' Fun" with [[Mario]] mowing the lawn. When the page is activated, Mario starts singing, [[Luigi]] himself starts mowing, [[Princess Peach|Peach]] catches the grass trimmings from Mario's mower, some [[Shy Guy]]s are shown hiding in one of the grass baskets, and the shrubs bloom.
The only difference between day and night is that there are lit torches in the background at night.
