UGLY BABIES

Marketing turned advocacy. When a leading baby brand refomulated its whole product line-up, we saw an opportunity to use the global rebrand as a springboard to change Filipino parenting culture for the better.

01/ THE CHALLENGE

The global campaign for the product relaunch was #ChooseGentle to match the gentlest-ever formulations of the products. In the Philippines, this wasn't exactly the most exciting news. All baby products were communicating gentle. How then could we drive relevance for the rebrand?

02/ THE INSIGHT

Just like the rest of the world, Filipino parents love gentle baby products, but traditional Filipino parenting was far from gentle. Spanking, gaslighting, and harsh disciplinary punishments were still the norm.

THE IDEA

PLAY UP THE IRONY. START THE CONVERSATION WITH ANTI-BABY ART.

We partnered with edgy avant-garde artist, Leeroy New to produce sculptures inspired by moments when children misbehave, set up in places where parents were most likely to get into arguments with their child (toy stores, gadget stores). Interacting with the art leads parents to an interactive, education video on the effects of harsh parenting and the importance of choosing gentle from the products they use to the way they raise their child.
