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.

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.

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.

  • Pseudonyms in public

    Families and kids appear under made-up names. Real names are shared only between families who invited each other.

  • A person plays it first

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

Names and connections

Pseudonyms in public. Real names by invitation.

Every family and every young maker gets a pseudonym. When one family invites another and both agree, those two families see each other’s real names and their kids’ names. Nobody else does.

  • Your network grows one invite at a time, and you choose every one
  • No “people you may know” and no algorithm deciding who you meet
  • Stop sharing any time, and names go back to pseudonyms on both sides

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 every connected family at once
