We present a novel playground platform that will hopefully help in countering two important issues in children in the developed world: lack of physical activity and lack of socialization. The system underlying the platform will eventually adapt automatically to and modulate the amount of physical activity of children by applying a new notion in interaction: that of "interaction tempo". The concept of beats per minute seems especially adequate as the base structure of a physically-based activity. As an exertion interface we expect that, through the design of collaborative experiences, it will also enhance socialization of children.
