    Got this item as a gift for my kids for Christmas. We live in a cold area for winter where we are cooped up inside a lot. This seemed like a great option for the kids to have fun gaming while remaining active. They love it and break a sweat often playing it. Would definitely buy again!

    I can’t recommend this enough. This little box is awesome. Our grandchildren, ages 5 and 8, enjoy playing all the games, etc that this device has to offer. Xmas has come and gone and they still play with it. I highly recommend this to everyone, you won’t regret it!!

    I bought this for my grandkids. They love it! Their parents like that it keeps them moving, unlike other video game systems. I love that it’s portable, so they can move it easily between houses. It was so easy to set up and get going.

    Tremendous Value, Fun Games for the Whole Family

    Really love this small motion gaming console. Fun, repeatable games safe for the whole family and young kids, most often really great for 1-2 players at a time and some games supporting 1-4 players as well. Great for kids to burn off excess energy and get some healthy exercise in, and something I've been incorporating into my morning workout routine as well as there's a great music rhythm game and some exercise-specific games as well. Love how none of these games require a controller - you use a remote to navigate the menu and select games but once you're in a game most of them can be entirely controlled with body motion alone. The console comes with 5 games in the box and you need a quarterly or monthly subscription to access the rest of the content but with 22+ games for only $90 a year for the annual plan it really feels like a steal. I bought this with same day shipping in the morning and got it delivered to me in less than 5 hours. Did not know that was possible. Wow!

    The NexPlayground is great, especially on days it’s too cold to be outside, but the kids want to burn some energy. Fun for the whole family!

    If you want to buy something for kids when they can't go outside to play. This is the best option. They have so many games and yes its a work out also. You have your water bottle ready lol and lot of energy. This game system will have you tired and the kids.

    Good games for all, group games and interactive games so the kids are not just sitting on the couch. It is still screen time but at least they are active when the weather is bad. You do need the $80 a year subscription to take full advantage, but i knew that before purchasing and it is well worth it

    Simplest device I have ever set up. The play pass is worth the extra games and my kids love it! My 4 year old can start the games and complete tasks without an adult present. Love that its something to keep them active instead of sedentary!

    This is a great buy for my 4 year old grandson. He plays with it every day and loves it. There is nothing cuter than walking in and seeing him trying to learn to line dance with his Nex Playground LOL. It is the greatest.

    We’ve had the Nex Playground for a few months now, and it has completely changed how he spends time in the living room. If you are trying to cut back on screen time where kids just sit and stare at a tablet, this is the perfect solution.

    This is a great device , I’m tired of seeing my kids on their tablets and this helps them get up and get active while they play video games . My daughter loves the care bears game and bluey . I do recommend it . I also get to play with them because you can have multiple people playing at the same time . It reminds me of the Wii system .

    we are pleasantly surprised with how easy this setup, and use has been! As a family with small little kiddos, we were nervous about bringing a console into the home. This has been such a fun way to involve the whole family in game night.
