Nex Playground helps in school holidays. Parents look for new ways to recreate the fun, movement and excitement of summer camp at home—keeping children active, entertained and connected without having to leave the house.
Recently launched in the UK, Nex Playground turns the living room into an active play space, using AI-powered motion tracking to transform children’s movements into gameplay. With no controllers, wearables or VR headsets, it encourages whole-body interaction, making kids jump, dance, compete and collaborate, creating the kind of energetic, group play more commonly associated with summer camps than video games. Designed for family play, it offers a closed ecosystem with no ads, no mature content and a secure gaming environment.

The result is a new kind of “living room summer camp”. One that gives families an easy way to recreate obstacle courses, dance-offs, sports challenges and family competitions at home, whether they’re escaping a rainy afternoon or simply looking for a fresh way to keep children entertained.
It’s part of a wider shift towards technology that encourages movement and shared experiences, rather than passive viewing, and reflects how many families are rethinking what quality screen time looks like during the long summer break.
