Rules
Three pint-sized families vie for cash prizes by seeing who can successfully complete a series of physical challenges. The game is played in a house where everything is 100 times bigger than the contestants, including a giant vacuum cleaner, a huge washing machine, an enormous television, a cup have the size of a tanker truck, kitchen sink with the size of a semi-olympic pool, a fan similar to an airplane propeller, and a spoon and fork as high as a two-story house. A world in which everything found in the average home is suddenly enormous, even the most commonplace household task is dangerous as small accidents at home will turn into adventures, the families will try to prevent a danger in each room and struggle with giant objects for completing the course in the quickest time in order to win the prize.

In the show four timed rounds: a children's round in children room, a mother's round in kitchen, a father's round in the living room, and a family round in a giant washing machine within the laundry room. The show pits families in competitions set in an oversized house that makes them look like mice, climbing giant sofas while using rock climbing techniques, dancing on oversized record players, competing against the clock in toy cars racing down a track, navigate aboard a sponge or swimming in the sink water to fix a leaky pipe that threatens to flood the house, inching across rolling pins over vats of chocolate milk and swimming through obstacles in a pool-sized washing machine. The challenges may sound simple at first, like turning off a hairdryer, closing a water tap, dodge toy soldier bullets, cross a mountain high sneaker, unplug a sparking outlet before a fire breaks out, battle treacherous hurricane winds in an effort to turn off a household fan, or finding a pin in a bowl of pasta, but when faced with gargantuan objects, contestants must find strength, speed, and creativity to succeed. In the final round, the fate of each family is left up to the fathers. Each dad is submerged into a giant washing machine where he must hold on as long as he can for buttons of their team's color while the increasing centrifugal force of the washing machine tests his strength. As velocity increases, soap and water are released and the fathers must avoid being thrown out with the clothes while surviving dizzying spins until one of them manages to turn it off.

And as if that weren't enough, for every challenge that a family previously lost, a five-kilo weight is strapped to the dad's body. The family whose father holds on the longest wins the game.
