To burn calories is to sweat for at least 20 mins. The key to it is "aerobic" i.e. repeated movements that resulting in perspiration. This will not only burn calories but will also strengthen heart. Avoid jumping, if you are above 50. It will affect your old knees (and your house might collapse).
There are various exercises that will help, simple and easy on the old body --
1. Walking on the spot, with knees lifted as high as you can, lifting your hands sideways as you lower your foot
2. Walking up and down steps, and lifting your hands up and down synchronized with your walking movements
3. Indoor cycling, if you have one
4. Fast walking from kitchen to living room and vice versa, swing your arms as you walk
5. Combination of some of the above, to avoid monotonous
Please do at leaset 20 mins. Hope this will help.

The best thing I can suggest is Dance Dance Revolution. It's fun, addicting, and you break a sweat in minutes if you work at it. It's worth it, believe me. You can burn around a thousand calories an hour when you do it continuously. I've been doing this daily.

Jumping rope nonstop burns more calories per hour than running.
