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

Playground is your feel-good solution to bring the family together this fall.
