As parents with kids, I think we've all had those times when everyone

in the family is off on their own personal devices. Wouldn't it be great if you could find an

activity that everyone will agree on? Something that's both active and fun at the same time? Imagine

that. I think we would all love this. We've found an amazing new solution called Next Playground.

It's an active game system for families where your body powers the play. It's 100% motion-driven gaming. No controllers or wearables

needed. Just play naturally. And the games are so great. Get immersed in adventures like how to

train your dragon, dance with Barbie, pop bubbles in Gabby's

dollhouse, or master some moves with Kung Fu Panda. Even better, Playground is kids safe, with no ads,

in-app purchases, or mature content. Playground is your feel-good solution to bring the family

together this fall. Want to learn more? Visit nextplayground.com. That's N-E-X-Playground.com to explore

active family gaming today. Thanks. Enjoy the episode. The Bad Tiger
