About Pit and Play
About us
It all started with my daughter.
She wanted to throw—something I saw as a healthy, playful development . But preferably safe and fun for everyone. I made a first beanbag from leftovers and old stuffing from my pregnancy pillow and rice and pasta from the kitchen drawer. And guess what? It was a hit.
During my leave, I started making more. For friends, family, and acquaintances. Demand kept growing – and that's how this brand was born.
What we make
We make handmade beanbags for children (and adults) – as open-ended toys , for sensory play , stimulation and above all: fun .
Our bags are:
- Made from fabrics with the Oeko-Tex quality mark
- Double stitched and extra safe
- Filled with pure cherry stones
- CE-approved toys
- In all kinds of fabrics, structures, colours and prints
Children can throw, feel, imagine, stack, sort or just relax.
And parents? They can play too – or just enjoy a moment of rest.
Unique to us
Safety first. Our beanbags are stitched twice as securely, so they're fun for all ages.
We combine craftsmanship with inclusion.
Our bags are made by seamstresses and social work companies.
People who are distanced from the labor market are given the opportunity to do what makes them happy again: creating.
You also choose your own style.
With dozens of fabrics and combinations, you can create your own set – so it really suits your family.
What we stand for
- Playing with imagination
- Freedom in movement
- Care for the child and the planet
- Socially inclusive entrepreneurship
- Peace and fun at home
And the future?
I come from healthcare, not e-commerce. But I'm learning every day.
What started small is now growing rapidly. Our products are already available in stores in the Netherlands, Belgium, and Germany. And our customers come from all over Europe.
My dream?
A wide range, even more sensory products and a webshop that every family can identify with.
