It’s tough to be a Mom in the 21st century. Not only is your family changing and growing, everything around you is too. In this world where we move from screen to screen, the toy industry is as saturated as it ever has been. Everyday you see more and more “experts” repeating the same thing other toy companies are saying: “our toys provide your child with a fun learning experience.” But when you’re two feet tall and brand new to the world, isn’t everything a learning experience? Of course you want your child to walk and talk, read and write, but you also want him to develop a personality, learn from mistakes, and write his own life’s story. Exploration, imagination, experimentation are all the core components of a creative and expressive child’s development. Which is why for Playskool, toys are not just about what your child gets out of play, but how they get there. Starting with our product and ending with our customers, Playskool unlocks the love of learning with a simple formula. Playskool is the Heart of Discovery.
Executive Summary

Situational Analysis
There’s no denying that Playskool is in a fight for survival. The have found themselves in the middle of a battle for share of a 21.5 billion dollar toy industry, the infant/preschool category being the highest grossing sectors of the toy market with 3 billion in total revenue (TIA, Inc. http://www.toyassociation.org).
Although historically number two in their category, that remains a relative term with Fisher Price claiming the number one spot by high margin. Toys sales have not been immune to the economy. According to market research, U.S. retail sales of toys generated $21.6 billion in 2008 compared to $22.3 billion in 2007, representing a decline of 3%. Hasbro, the parent company of Playskool, also reported a revenue decrease of 6% for 2009 (The NPD Group, Inc.). The quest to find the right set of toy features have led to innovative jumps in product quality. The product developments have not been met with as equally innovative
market strategies. The failure to apply the correct market message and product differentiation have left confused consumers with scores of parity messages about preschool toys The greatest problem facing the toy industry is this product parity. Most parents purchasing toys don’t rely on the brand name but rather the nature of the toys design and features to dictate their purchase decision. Leaders in the industry like Hasbro, Fisher Price, and the technically inclined up and comer LeapFrog, struggle to find the right equation to help them establish brand loyalty and in turn, a bright and happy future. Parents will always want to provide their kids with toys that can inhibit learning and imagination. The share leaders in the preschool toy market have been able to do this. However, what they have not been able to do is create a brand identity that creates loyalty to their toys. So
toy market
Where does that loyalty lie?

target Active moms. Mothers with children age 0 to 5, who are immersed in their children’s lives and who understand that childhood experiences could potentially set them up for success in the future. These moms enjoy watching their children discover themselves through curiosity and imagination.
The “Oh my gosh honey, get the camera”, type of moments are very important for our mothers. They serve as milestones in a child’s life and moms have a earning to be apart of that.
Demographics • Children from Birth to age 5 • Graduated or attending college • HH income of 75K+ • Married or Engaged • Currently working Full/Part time or have worked prior to being a mother. 71% of moms participate in the workforce and one in four work out of the home.
Psychographics(MRI2009)• Social Networking is a priority; Moms who use social media regularly has increased from 11% in 2006 to 63% in 2009.
• Most moms log on to Facebook at least once a day and more than two thirds log on twice a day or more. Three quarters of moms report that they are fans of at least one company on Facebook, especially those with a parenting emphasis.
• Not Tech Savvy; Tech Aware. Nine out of 10 moms reporting that they own or use digital cameras. However, moms primary concern with technology is multiuse and convenience— not feature richness.
Behaviors• Rely on children’s requests, advice from family/friends, and brands that they are familiar with, when considering a purchase. Seven in ten moms say that brand familiarity is a important factor and nearly two thirds of moms cite children’s requests and more that half say that recommendations from family and friends are important influences.

meet Becky
A 30 year old married, mother of two. A Household income of roughly 100k. Becky and her husband have three year old twins; one boy and one girl. Becky is a college graduate and before giving birth she worked as a successful real estate agent. During the first two years, Becky was a stay at home mom; recently she decided to work part time at home, although her main concern is still her children. Safety, emotional health, and nutrition continue to be top priorities for Becky while raising her twins. It may not be her favorite thing for her kids to do, but they have grown fond of the Disney channel and she does let them watch it from time
to time (more as a babysitter than anything). The twins can be a hand full at times, but she still makes a point to play with them once a day. The family makes frequent trips to the park and zoo. Becky likes to keep fresh fruits and vegetables in the house to maintain a healthy lifestyle for her family. Although not as important, she does manage to run at least 3 times a week to stay active.
When it comes to toy purchases Becky relies on friends and family for advice. However, she does enjoy surfing the net for specific toy reviews to back up that advice. When purchasing a toy she asks herself:

Parity in Product Category
• All preschool toys have some inherent educational value for a child’s development.
• The entire preschool toy category advertises this “learning through play” theme.
Consumer Awareness of Brand Benefits
• Current Playskool campaigns fail to express the differences of toy design and development from their competitors.
• Fail to communicate that Playskool’s products are simply designed and allow for the constructivist model of childhood development by encouraging learning without traditional environmental or imaginative constraints.
• Fail to communicate that Playskool focuses specifically on preschool development.
• Fail to provide a brand identity that will motivate mothers to purchase Playskool toys specifically.

Mommytalkisgreaterthanever!
Our target is a younger, more social group of moms. They have grown up with large social circles and as they are starting their own families, they’re looking for the same peer advice about parenting and toys, just finding the answers in different ways.

Moms don’t know the difference between toy brand philosophies. While they realize that their child should obviously be learning while they’re playing, they don’t have a real sense of the differentiation between Playskool and our competitor.

Positioning
Playskool is the pre-school toy company for active moms with children from birth to age 5, that sparks imagination and development with simple yet dynamic products stimulating the natural way children ‘Play’— Discovery.
Strategy
20
creative briefWhat do we want this advertising to do?
To establish a differentiating identity that communicates Playskool as the foremost authority in Playskool toys, which induces imagination and discovery.
Who are we talking too and what insights do we have about them?
Moms with children between 0 and 5 years of age
How do we want them to describe this brand — how would they talk about its essence and personality?
Playskool toys are simple in nature and the possibilities of usage are bound only by the power of the child’s mind. The toys stimulate development, curiosity, and discovery that are essential to a child growth.
21
What’s the single most important thing we want them to take out of this advertising?
Playskool toys remove any limitations on a child’s development.
How can we make this believable?
Show that the moments in a child’s life where they make giant leaps(Crawling, Walking etc) have a direct correlation with Playskool products and the love of a mother.
Rational: The skills developed through using simple Playskool toys influence the big leaps in a child’s life.
Emotional: The imagination and growth that Playskool toys foster produces settings where the mother feels true and unconditional love for their child.Is there anything else worth thinking about that might help us get to great creative work?
If you don’t want to put parameters on your child’s development then Playskool is the brand for you.
Are there any executional mandatory’s?
Include the tag line, “The Heart of Discovery”
Almost there...

Scene: A mother watches adoringly as her son experiments with the Playskool Product Sit N Spin.
VO: (male with soothing voice) Watching your child discover is like watching them being born again. It doesn’t matter how many times you see it. The feeling never goes away.
And then there’s that moment,
(Child is shown using Sit N Spin laughing hysterically. He figured it out!!)
where your hopes, your dreams, and your fears fade away. The only thing you can think about is how much you love this person. And you think to yourself,
There is no way someone can love another the way I love my child.
(Camera zooms in on the child using the Sit N Spin)
Your hopes, your dreams, and your fears return. But this time you know your child’s creativity and imagination will take them to places not yet discovered.
(Camera zooms out from child on Sit N Spin to reveal an Astronaut Anti-Gravity machine. The video cuts to the grown up child, boarding a NASA space shuttle destined for the moon. The scene ends showing the mother looking proudly on as the rocket takes off.)
