Fun family activities with kids at home

When everyone needs a break from sitting, a camera game can turn a living room into a short movement challenge. These ideas work best when an adult sets up the space and joins the fun.

Pick an activity for your space

Small-space reaches

Bubble Pop asks players to reach high and sideways. Take turns trying to beat a personal score without needing to run around.

Jumping rounds

Log Jumper and Rocket Rope suit a clear floor area and kids who enjoy timing small hops.

Freeze and pose

Try Freeze Statue for dance-and-stop play or Shape Wall for copying silhouettes.

Make it a family mini tournament

Choose two or three games with different moves. Give each player a turn, then invite everyone to cheer for a new personal best. Player profiles, scores and unlocked levels stay in the local browser or TV app storage, so you can return to the challenge later on the same device.

You can also use a theme: an animal round with Flappy Wings and Panda Dash, or a story round with Orchard Walking and Elemental Hero.

Set up for safe play

Move furniture out of reach, check the floor, and place the camera so the player fits in view. Use good lighting and a comfortable range of motion. MoveToPlayGames is intended for ages 6 and up; a parent or guardian should supervise children. Start on a computer with a webcam, or follow the Android TV setup guide for the big screen.
