Red Light, Green Light
Walk while the phone counts, freeze on “Red light!”. Move on red and it’s back to the start.
How many players?
Names (optional) Add names so turns are called by name
First names or nicknames, saved only on this phone. Pick a kid’s age so the youngest goes first and quiz cards fit each kid; tick “Adult” for grown-ups: they get harder words to act out and no kids-only topics.
How old is the youngest player?
Cards follow the youngest player.
Red Light, Green Light: the phone is the caller for your family
Put the phone at the finish line; everyone starts 5–10 steps away. Walk while the phone counts and freeze on “Red light!”. Anyone who moves goes back to the start. The count is sometimes fast, sometimes slow, so nobody can guess it.
2 players
A grown-up watches and a kid walks; swap after each finish. In a small room, take tiny steps.
3 players
A grown-up watches and two players walk together. First to touch the finish wins the round.
4 or more players
With 4 or more, one watches and the rest walk. Walk, don’t run, and play outside if the room is small.

Can you stop in time?
Questions parents ask
Can we play indoors?
Yes: clear a path and walk slowly, no running. A garden or a long hallway is even more fun.
Do we need to hold or watch the phone?
No. The phone reads aloud and moves on by itself. Turn on hands-free and pick 🌙 Screen dim: the screen goes black but keeps talking, so lay it face down and listen.
Does it cost anything?
No. It's free, with no sign-up and no ads, and your kids' names stay on your phone.
