Getting older adults excited about exercising?

I'm currently quarantining with my parents, who are older (later 60s) and am hoping to get them into doing some strength building exercises because I can see them starting to lose muscle mass.

Ive tried doing some basic exercises with them (wall sits and a little with resistance bands) and got complaints because it was not particularly fun. The movements were a little challenging but mostly boring I think. They aren't horribly opposed to the idea but due to lack of interest certainly won't do it on their own.

Does anyone have recommendations for getting older people excited to do strength building/maintaining exercises?
