A private playground for families

Games made by kids. Played by friends.

Playground is a private home for the games, stories and toys your child makes with you and AI. Share them with families you trust, collect kind notes from real players, and discover the best of what other young makers have built.

  • Free for families
  • Kids never need an account
  • No ads, no tracking

How it works

From the kitchen table to real players by teatime.

Works with games made in Claude, Gemini, ChatGPT, Scratch, or anything else that runs in a web browser.

  1. Mia’s idea

    can the stars fall faster when i get to 10??

    AI helper
    Done. Every 10 stars, the sky speeds up a little.

    1Make it together

    Build a game with your child in the AI tool you already use. Your child brings the idea and the drawings. You help steer and type.

  2. Just our family

Private by design

Kids make the games. Parents hold the keys.

Nothing your child makes is public unless you choose to share it, and every conversation on Playground happens between grown-ups.

  • Kids never have accounts

    Children play from your device or a play link you send. They can’t be searched for, followed or messaged.

  • Notes go parent to parent

    Feedback comes to you first. You decide what reaches your child’s Fridge.

  • Circles, not followers

    Share with families you invite. No public profiles, no like counts, no leaderboards.

  • A person plays it first

    Every featured game is played by a curator and checked for outside links, data collection and anything unkind.

No ads, ever No tracking or data sales Designed with COPPA and the UK Children’s Code in mind Delete your family’s data in one step

Human feedback

Kind notes from real players, straight to the fridge.

Parents leave short notes in three parts: what their child loved, an idea, and a question. You read them first, then pin the best ones to your child’s Fridge in words they can read.

  • Three prompts keep every note specific and kind
  • Read-aloud versions for makers who aren’t reading yet
  • Reply privately, or thank a whole circle at once
