• Playing on icicles - 5 icicles are visible on the screen and 5 buttons on the Wii Remote and the Nunchuk are associated with them. The player's task is to repeat a heard melody as precisely as possible.
• Fishing - players have to swing the Wii Remote or the Nunchuk and push a button displayed above a fish to catch it. Otherwise a fish will escape.
• Bunny chase - players have to wave the Wii Remote and the Nunchuk to catch a bunny running in front of players. Players need to jump to evade beams on a road or push the B and the Z buttons at the same time to slide under a branch.
• Making a snowman - players have to use the Nunchuk stick to move left or right and perform gestures or to push a presented button in order to make a snowman.
