My other video has more info on the automations: th-cam.com/video/9YRcJ9lGfnI/w-d-xo.html
This video was a LOT of fun and my kids are still loving the games!
Hehe - loved the outro! 😅
Awesome stuff
Where can we find the yaml configs for your HA automations?
Lol the toilet is flooding but the games are too awesome
it sound like fun
if i had a dad i woude ask him to do the same :) but mt dad left to get milk and nerver came back know im with my llile bro and my mom its fun
His kids are playing 4D chess watching this video so they can circumvent his automations.
69th like lol
As far as i can tell (only like 75% through the video) the only real method used is distraction
Bro what
@@GarnetTheif fellow #riggyraise guy
@@mcaguy.mp4 yup #raiseriggy
this is honestly amazing. it's clear you care a lot about your kids and the amount of time you probably spent thinking of and setting all these up so your kids are entertained while youre busy is both impressive and admirable
I second this!
At least he solve it once and for all
You should make an automation that will let your kids leave a message. This would show up as a mail icon on your stream deck that you could press and listen to the messages when you had free time. This would also help if your kids forget what they want to tell you.
Agreed
I up this comment
That's Smart!
I was thinking a video doorbell. You can get apartment kits for many that allow them to be installed temporarily, then program the button. A press just sends a flag to the streamdeck, a press and hold begins recording.
If they press the button and it sends the flag, then you know they need attention. Press and hold let's them "share secrets" or tell you something they think you need to know.
No kids - no problem😂
These automations are absurd and ridiculous and I loved every last one of them!! And they kept getting progressively more interesting too!!! This is such a creative use of tech where you home is able to interact with your kids in a meaningful way.
Im curious though , how does your wife feel about it? Mines would think it’s ridiculous but then use it consistently 😂
I appreciate it! She likes them because when our 4 year old is busy finding the pink light or playing in "the jungle" and not bugging my wife every two seconds... she is happy.
🥰 I approve of all this. Great work yo! As a smart home enthusiast and aspiring father, I salute you!
like it
@@SmartHomeSolverwife approval factor is through the roof
@@SmartHomeSolveryou need a mail one where they can leave a message to prevent issues like a toilet flood.
The only flaw in this logic is that it would backfire. If you give them treats for knocking on your door. They will be knocking on your door all day, just so they can play the games and get the treats lol
There is a m&m limiter, it will give less until it runs out of m&ms and then he fills it the next day.
Haha you must have a cat, you know this game
This is the best thing I've seen yet with automations! Your creativity, imagination and ability to work around the technology to make the magic happen is phenomenal. Everyone's too busy trying to make life better, you're out here making life fun
Well said!
Considering how amazing all of these automations are, the kids will probably want to bang on the door for more games!
Mom, Dad, why does my favorite song keep coming from your room at night?
😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
It took my like 5 minutes to realise what this comment meant
You are a GENIUS! These are all amazing! How old are your kids? Curious when you think these will start to be effective?
It's mainly used by our 4 year old. Her older sister is at school during the day but still likes playing the games.
These automations are amazing, and with each one you managed to blow my expectations away. It's crazy to see people create such complex and amazing automations, when I wouldn't have thought half of this was even possible. Keep it up.
The post video scene was toooo cute!!❤️ Love the games as well
Neat idea, but this might teach your kids that "if I knock on the door, I'll get to play a game!"
I'd love to see a detailed guide on how you setup your roborock with home assistant!
Same
I just wanted to say, I don’t know how I found your channel but you’re just such a wholesome guy and I love that you include your family in your videos. It makes everything feel a lot more at home. Great content, please keep them coming as I not only find your videos helpful but very entertaining as well.
getting the robot vacuum to play hide and seek is just genius, love that idea!
Try making the "Red light, Green Light" game from the Squid Game series, using motion sensors
Good idea! The Aqara FP2 in that room would actually be perfect for that.
I wasn't expecting the robot vacuum thing! That's pretty cool!!! What does it do if it finds her that way? Is there a mint recognition for that and then game over?
As an Aussie, it's great to see Bluey was one of the favourite shows to put on!
Almost feels like each game in his smart home is its own episode on Bluey.
Youre basically a full time software engineer at this point! Amazing automations!
the pressure sensor under the bed goes off when the parents are getting busy... LOL
Another great video demonstrating the possibilities of what you can do with the tech in our homes. As my kids our grown, will pass down some of these to them for their children. Very entertaining
Wow, home automation into another level. Well done, sir!
Hi Reid, I watch your videos regularly because of the nuanced content and the high quality. But this is just in a league of its own! Honestly floored by your ingenuity! All the best from Germany.
The indoor trampoline automation meant for kids activates on Valentine's Day 🤣
Incredible stuff! I’ve been thinking about making that ninja game for a little while now with my kids, but the pet feeder treat at the end is beyond genius!
Wow, home automation into another level. Well done, sir!. Youre basically a full time software engineer at this point! Amazing automations!.
These automations are great. I think that it's a really creative use and a lot more interesting then a lot of obvious routines. Plus it gets kids interested in technology and creativity.
This is the coolest automations I've seen in a long time 😂😂 Keep up the the creativity and keep sharing 👌🏻😃
"The toilet has been flooding for five hours!"
😂😂😂😂 had me dying of laughter!
Maybe add a computer outside your work room, with a terminal to chat with, that sends all messages to your inbox.
oh man what an awesome use for the pet feeder!
I loved this video! I don't think anyone working at home with small children would bash you for these fun automations
Now you’ve trialed it on the kids can we see a video of how to get it to work on the wife for some peace time.
Tbh I think the automations are genius and well thought out.
Not a bad idea! Could backfire quickly but it might be worth trying 🤣
me: steps on his doormat
his house: hello this is jarvis-
kid: *knocks*
alexa: Yo go to the kitchen for candy
kid: *chokes on candy*
also kid: *bangs on door*
alexa: lets play the light game
kid: *dies*
alexa: lets play the heaven or hell betting game
You are awesome man! I need to do some home automations, but first I need to watch more of your stuff!
Dude, you're a cool parent. Not just any dad, but a cool dad!!
My guy took kids games to another level
Haha. The ending skit was hilarious 😂😂😂
So here’s how it works: the door is covered in mousetraps and buttons that release a grenade hung by a strung from the ceiling, and when they touch the door, it’ll be their last time
"DAD HELP I BROKE MY ARM OUTSIDE AND CANT FIND MOMMY" Alexa: want to play a game? " NO I NEED HELP" Alexa: turn off all the lights before the timer runs out to acheive help
6:33 just starts playing ymca when you take a nap after forgetting to turn it off
My new channel dabbles in automation, and you've been recommended ever since. Amazing ideas and productions man!!!
This will just make the kids want to bang the door to have fun, and that is not so fun for you 😅😅😂😂
Instructions unclear, my kids are now knocking every 5 minutes to trigger automations
You my friend are a smart home routine genius! I need to level up my skills to get even some real basic routines going (it would help to have more devices as well).
Old mate can watch corn in peace. Love it.
Great fun video, always nice to do something with the kids, especially when they are cheerful!
Youre basically a full time software engineer at this point! Amazing automations!. Youre basically a full time software engineer at this point! Amazing automations!.
😂 The 😂 last 😂 one 😂 though 😂😂
At first I was expecting some micheal reeves type stuff like him electrifying the door. Now I’m highly dissapointed
This is awesome. I expect my kids would learn within a day to just bang on the door whenever they come by just to get some TV or a treat :)
He has more cool features in his house than a James Bond Movie.
A pressure sensor under the bed. Ummmmm. The kids go to the toilet at night and hear music comming from the parents bedroom😅
4:56 - Use a mmWave sensor instead of a motion sensor for extra hard mode. LOL! That should buy you a lot of time (mine actually senses me through walls and doors). 😛😋 Can even make that hard mode start after the first level Ninja mode and let out even more M&Ms. If you use Z2M in HA, you might able to increase the range and sensitivity of the mmWave to make it more difficult as it goes up to impossible mode. A cooldown-timer can prevent the game from being played over and over should they make it to impossible mode. Very brilliant set of automations Reed and excellent TH-cam thumbnail.
6:47 - I do the EXACT same thing. For the alarm/music to turn off on my Echo device I can either get out of bed or take my phone off the charger. This snoozes it, and if I'm still in bed the only way that it'll deactivate the alarm is getting out bed. Bravo, sir.
This video is amazing! Do you use home assistant for this automations? Do you use node red?
I'm using Home Assistant and I show how many of them are working on the second channel video posted today th-cam.com/video/9YRcJ9lGfnI/w-d-xo.html
Question, where did you get the small remote type unit with the buttons that you are pressing in one part of the video? Great Video!!!! Nevermind I just found it in your other video that I some how missed.
you are the best parent when it comes to your kids and smart home
6:50 so when its seggy time.. will the music play? XDD
"Daddy I don't feel so good!" "Let's go jump on the bed and listen to music."
This is absolutely absurd and ridiculous. I LOVE IT!!!!
8:12 this dad is amazing
Awesome automations Reed! I am curious about the spouse approval factor for them...
You are a genius! I wished I had this when my kids were young, this seems to be a lot of fun. Maybe I will setup some games for my grand childrens when I have some!
Just awesome. I wish I had this type of creativity
Thank you for your awesome video, do you know a way to trigger a stream deck key with a smarthome device action?
Hi, great video. I want to add to my network with about 40devices (half of them tuya smart) 30 led smart bulbs and cant find any cheap options with zigbee hub. If i will go without hub will it overload my RT-AX86U router?
Thanks! Usually smart devices that use a lot of bandwidth (cameras uploading to the cloud) are the main culprits. You will probably be fine with that router. Once you start getting way past 100 devices and your router is needing to be re-booted every week, then you will know it's time to upgrade the router.
Love it. Your best Video yet ❤ - my wife will hate how much time I'll spend reengineering these automations 😂
Amazing. Great stuff. Clever and fun! Your a good dad
the tolilet has been flooding for 5 hours.. LOL
I'm going to combine your ninja game, hide and go seek game, jump time and light game into one single game.
These automations are very creative
Good job!
6:39 imagine the kids hear music in the night while the parents are in the bed lol
"I twied" CUTEST THING EVERR
With the kiddos getting out of school soon for the summer, these are some great ideas!
The Alexa: “candy.”
Children: 🏃♀️💨
These are the BEST! Definitely going to make these
Bro this is the best automation video EVER!!!! How creative!!!! Thanks for sharing
Bruh you are the megamind of smart homes
Oh lord. I expect to see a robot clone of you next 😂. I love technology. Love the endless boundaries that you can push with technology. Its great.
These automations are hilarious. The one that make's it look like no one is in the room could easily be done by a door sweep that would block the light from under the door and the ninja game will teach your kids how to game the motion sensor automations for mischievous kid activities.
If you are really worried about kids bypassing inferred sensors for security and monitoring outside the game you can always add some mmwave sensors to supplement.
You really should’ve listened to your kid after the toilet was flooding for five hours😂😂😂
I twyed! 😅 So cute, should also have subtitle 😂
You are an evil genius and Pavlov is looking down on you with huge smile on his face.
Literally feeding his kids with a pet feeder LMAO
You are the best dad ever man
That's very cool, I honestly didn't expect, that this chanal can be better than devices review, but this content is another level! Very impressive
I bet the trampoline music play at night sometimes 😂
me after getting locked out of my smart home when the power goes out
pov: your house is being robbed/burning down and your kids are trying to warn you
That bed might baddie when your kid is sleeping 😂
Ah yes, To make my kid stop making noises that disrupt the meeting, I’ll make the kid make louder noises or myself make louder noises.
Don't these automations make them distract you more in order to get more "games" for the day ?
Hey quick question, what is the best way to trigger alexa routines with home assistant?
"The twoilet has been fwlooding for 5 hours!
What?! Why didnt you tell me?!
I twied." Cutest ending scene ever.
Lol. Thanks Reed. Very inventive.
Man you're a great parent. Instead of telling your kids to stop and then they will be bored, you give them fun games and other automated epic stuff!
6:00
scene
3am Kids are asleep, daughter wakes up and hears her favorite music playing in her parents room, goes to investigate gets scared for life
hahaha, You're amazing... The Ninja and Jump Time games are fantastic.
I see why the ninja game is your daughter's favorite. Ingenious to use a smart home as kids game, I love it. I also love to use the pet feeder as an automated M&M's dispenser, that's just awesome! Kudos for not showing your daughter's face in the videos, protect your kids from the internet! Greetings from The Netherlands.
