The antithesis of a traditional indoor playspace, ExerBlast, which opened in September, is aimed to appeal to Generation Tech kids who are more accustomed to switching on a Wii than throwing a ball around outdoors. At this Tribeca storefront, the little ones each strap on an iPod Touch that’s been programmed to tabulate points�the more you move, the more you earn�as they bounce through interactive activities, from climbing a wall covered in digital projections to playing a tweaked version of tag with fast-moving �projected lights. Unlike at most �children’s spaces, parents are encouraged to participate. (Prices are per person, starting at $30 for a drop-in session.) After school, ExerBlast has a pickup service for students at P.S. 234 and P.S. 150, among others, and also offers a birthday-party room, classes for special-needs children, and monthly evening sessions so parents can go out for a sitterless dinner.
