"אני, אחי ובן דודי משחקים כל היום."
Translation:I, my brother and my cousin play all day.

“Play all the day” is to my ears a very unusual way to say it, and Duolingo usually doesn’t include unusual ways to say things. I put in “all day long” and I was marked wrong, because “all day” and “all day long” have a tiny bit of a different nuance, with the latter having a slightly heavier emphasis on the length of time.

uven is actually the correct pronunciation. vav before ב, ו ,מ and פ is pronounced as "u" and in turn ב when no longer the first letter of the word becomes v.
