    Beyond excited that Nex Playground has been recently honored with two new awards; an iF Design Award and a Good Design Award. At Nex, we’re driven by the belief that active play is essential, and that it helps bring people together. Through design, we’ll continue pushing the boundaries of how we bring this belief to life. These awards, and the ones we've previously earned, are a testament to that vision, and we couldn’t be more proud.

    Meet Cody, a Certified Gaming Technology Specialist. He's seen firsthand how Nex Playground makes movement fun and accessible—even for those who don’t consider themselves gamers. Whether it’s family fun or active play, this is gaming—reimagined. 🚀

This weekend was a celebration of play, community, and innovation—and it wouldn’t have been the same without you. We can't wait for the next one. ❤️

    We’ve been inspired by the organic adoption of Nex Playground by children’s hospitals. In April, we started a project with Duke Children’s Hospital to explore how Nex Playground might enhance recovery for hospitalized patients through play and movement. We’ve seen the magic of Nex Playground firsthand, bringing smiles and moments of joy to kids undergoing medical treatment. Now, we’re on a mission to share this joy with even more children—and we need your help to make it happen! All you need to do is share with hospital or pediatric teams you know or nominate a hospital at the link below and we'll do the rest! With your support, we can reach more hospitals and make this season brighter for kids who need it most. Let’s bring joy, one Nex Playground at a time! https://bit.ly/3OaTFjN
