About
We Rock the Spectrum in Madison is Nashville's sensory-inclusive indoor playground — a facility built on the explicit mission that play should be accessible to every child, including those with autism, sensory processing differences, ADHD, or other developmental differences. It's also just a really good playground for all kids.
The equipment goes well beyond the standard soft-play setup. We Rock the Spectrum locations nationwide are known for their specialized equipment: zip lines that cross the length of the room, therapy swings in multiple configurations (linear, rotary, cuddle swings that provide proprioceptive input), large crash mats, sensory bins filled with various tactile materials, and climbing structures designed for different physical ability levels. The combination of movement-based and sensory-focused equipment means kids with sensory-seeking behaviors find exactly what they need here.
For neurotypical kids, the novelty of the zip line alone is usually a hit. The calmer, intentionally designed environment also means less chaotic energy than a standard trampoline park — some kids actually focus better and play more creatively here than at louder venues.
For families who have children with sensory sensitivities or who've struggled to find play spaces that accommodate their kids without anxiety, We Rock the Spectrum can feel genuinely revelatory. Staff are trained in sensory-friendly practices and the facility design minimizes the overwhelming noise, harsh lighting, and chaotic energy that characterizes many traditional play centers.
Open most days 9:30AM-7PM; Saturday closes at 12:30PM. Check the website for any dedicated sensory-quiet hours or special programming.

Why Kids Love It
We Rock the Spectrum is built on the philosophy that play should be accessible to every child, including those with sensory sensitivities, autism, or developmental differences. The equipment — zip lines, swings, sensory bins, calming spaces — is specifically designed to provide therapeutic play opportunities, but neurotypical kids enjoy it just as much.
