Kids stuck at home? These Oculus Quest games will get them up and moving

Video games are amazing, but they usually don't do a great job of burning up physical energy. That's where VR and the Oculus Quest come in. If your kids are stuck at home and are bouncing off the walls, you can let them blow off some steam with the Oculus Quest. These games will get your kids and the family jumping, dancing, and spinning around.

Note: When you let kids use VR, remember to take breaks for ten minutes every hour. You can check out more guidance on letting your kids use VR in this guide.

Beat Saber

Beat Saber is an incredible game for all ages. It has a low learning curve and different skill levels, so anyone can enjoy it. You swing digital sabers at blocks to the beat of music. It feels like a bit of a mixture of Guitar Hero and Star Wars.

The Curious Tale of the Stolen Pets

Staff pick

This is a charming puzzle game that's a bit different than the other entries on this list. Rather than having them jump around, this game takes your kids through a giant VR diorama. In it, they'll solve puzzles and explore a colorful and immersive world.

Move that body!

OhShape

Have you ever seen the show Hole in the Wall? This is basically that game and mixed with music. You can dance your way through differently shaped holes and punch some coins along the way.

Matrix VR

Superhot VR

This game might be better for slightly older kids as it can be difficult to get through some levels. The world moves at the same pace you do in this title. That means you can analyze a situation and come up with a plan to shoot and punch your enemies like you're living in the Matrix.

Keep playing

Having to stay inside is never easy. You can only play on your phone, read books, and watch television for so long. The games on this list will help your kids and the whole family get up and moving. A lot of them are set to music, and just about every game on this list is easy to jump into.

Beat Saber is one of the best games on the Oculus Quest regardless of what's going on in the world. It has different skill levels, so it's great for beginners and expert gamers. If you want to take Beat Saber to the next level, you should try putting custom songs onto it.

Another great title is OhShape. It's like a VR version of Hole in the Wall that makes people contort their bodies into different shapes. It adds in music as well so you can dance between the different holes in the walls. To share the fun with the family, you should try casting the Oculus Quest to a TV.
