How SpaceToPlay Works
We help people design community-based programs and applications.
There are hundreds of spaces available in every community - like school gyms and fields, parks, people's backyards. There are thousands of people in every community who have kids that need fun, healthy stuff to do... who want to be more connected... who have really, really cool ideas they'd like to pursue.
Content
We help turn ideas into content or curriculum that makes it easier to deliver (or help other people deliver), measure and improve.
Code
In addition to our program/curriculum builder, we can quickly prototype and launch apps & tools to run programs (for facilitators & participants).
Guides
Our goal is to provide all the content and tools people need to facilitate fun, safe and successful programs and activities.
A Bigger Vision
A world where people continually expand our capacity to create the results we truly desire.
Most people have an idea or dream they would love spend more time on - including just spending more time with family and friends. We learn how to dream and be creative from a young age. We want to continue to foster these skills so people can continue to learn and relearn how to be visionaries, builders, explorers and problem solvers.
