Problem

Schools Saw a Playground.

Schools only get a handful of field trips a year, and the same names tend to come up: the museum and the other usual spots teachers already know. We were trying to get on that list.

The problem was how people saw us. To a lot of teachers, We Rock the Spectrum looked like a playground. It’s a fun day, sure, but not something they could tie back to what they were teaching. When a trip has to justify the class time and the budget, “fun” loses to the museum every time.

Main goal: book more field trips with schools, daycares and day programs.

Insight

The Equipment Already Teaches.

Everything in our gym is therapeutic equipment. The swings, crash pads and climbing pieces all work the sensory system. Kids were already learning about their senses every time they played. We just weren’t telling anyone.

03

Idea

Make the Learning Part of the Trip.

We added a sensory education piece to every field trip. Kids learn about all 8 senses and how their bodies take in the world, using the same equipment they’re playing on. It’s still fun. Now there’s a lesson behind it.

Execution

How It Came Together.

Direct mailer: we already had school addresses, so we led with the learning, then the details, pricing starting at $10 per child and how to book.

Gym poster: a large poster so every group that comes through sees it.

Teacher take-home: so teachers can keep the lesson going back in class. We made it with help from our OT team.

Parent take-home: so parents can see what their kids learned, with a reason to come back to We Rock.

Social posts and a screen graphic for the gym.

Result: field trip bookings went up after we rolled it out.
