Kids love a projector that responds to their movements. So a movie of fish swimming that respond as the kids run around in the water.

I saw a cool one that had a water fall on a wall that became a river on a floor and the kids could take cushions and divert the river by blocking its flow. The 7 year olds would like that.

4 year olds like physical challenges. So you could use the projector to do a dynamic hop scotch or jumping game with Lilly pads.

I am actually not a big fan of getting kids involved with devices though. I think they need to learn to play in groups, spend time outside, and learn to be as physically capable as possible.

I think if you use tech it would ideally be to teach them a rule based team game where they have to work together, user their imagination and solve a problem.
