It pretty much runs itself.
One person can run the whole parade. Everyone else just gets to enjoy it. Turnkey for whoever says yes. Optional for everyone else.
Grand Entrance
A staged launch puts the Doodles in the building. From day one they are alive, not decorations.
Every room adopts and colors a Doodle
Each classroom names one and colors it to life. Teachers pick the level that fits: enjoy it, run the weekly challenge, or choose from 300+ activities.
The whole building plays one game
Weekly building-wide challenges. Kids correcting a dinosaur's math is kids doing math.
300+ ready to run
Activities
Built on how kids actually change: play, art, belonging.
We built the parade on decades of research about how kids actually change: play, art, belonging. Here are the studies, mapped to every activity. Pairs with the SEL program and PBIS you already run.
+11 percentile points
Academic-achievement advantage for students in SEL programs, across 213 studies and 270,000+ children. Research base, not a parade outcome claim.
-13% chronic absenteeism
Among low-income students in the largest RCT in arts education (10,548 students, grades 3-8). Research base, not a parade outcome claim.

When schools usually start
October is National Bullying Prevention Month and Unity Day: order-by deadline matters. Spring improvement-plan cycles are the other natural window.
Many parades cost the school nothing: a local sponsor covers it, and we help you find one. Get it sponsored · Ordering
