Pit and Play Sensory Beanbags – Rainbow Red
Bring a little warmth and energy to open-ended play with the Pit and Play Rainbow Red Sensory Beanbag. Rich, cheerful and tactile, this vibrant red beanbag invites children to explore colour, movement and imaginative play through a simple object that can become anything they imagine. Filled with natural cherry pits, the beanbag has a satisfying weight and gentle texture that makes it enjoyable for little hands to squeeze, carry, throw, catch and balance. Children might use it as a treasure in a small-world adventure, a piece of pretend food, a counter for early colour and counting games, or simply as something to explore through touch and movement. As part of the Rainbow Collection, Rainbow Red can be enjoyed on its own or combined with other colours to create sorting games, colourful patterns, rainbow arrangements and imaginative play scenes. Its versatility means there is no single way to play – children can decide how the beanbag fits into their ideas and allow their games to change as they grow. A tactile toy for open-ended play The sensory experience comes from more than colour. The natural cherry pit filling gives the beanbag a gentle weight and distinctive feel, while the fabric adds another layer of tactile exploration. These simple sensory qualities encourage children to use their hands, notice differences and engage with the material in their own way. Suitable from around six months, once children can grasp objects independently, the beanbag can remain part of play throughout toddlerhood and the preschool years, taking on new purposes as children's interests and abilities develop.

About Pit and Play Pit and Play is a Dutch brand creating beautifully simple, thoughtfully designed play materials that encourage children to explore through their senses, movement and imagination. Their philosophy is rooted in the idea that children do not need toys with a single purpose or prescribed way of playing. Instead, simple, tactile materials can provide the freedom to invent, experiment and discover their own possibilities. Based in the Netherlands, Pit and Play combines thoughtful design with responsible, socially inclusive production. Their products are handmade with care, including through social workshops that create meaningful opportunities for people who may otherwise find it more difficult to access employment. This approach is an important part of the brand's ethos, ensuring that the story behind each product is just as thoughtful as the product itself. Pit and Play places a strong emphasis on natural, carefully considered materials and responsible manufacturing. Their sensory beanbags are filled with natural cherry pits and made using OEKO-TEX® certified fabrics, while their products are independently tested to meet European toy safety standards. The result is a collection that brings together quality, safety, sustainability and beautiful, purposeful design. At the heart of Pit and Play is open-ended play. Their simple designs can become part of countless different activities as children grow – from early sensory exploration and colour recognition to throwing, balancing, sorting, counting, imaginative play and small-world adventures. Rather than directing children towards one particular outcome, Pit and Play creates materials that leave room for children to decide what happens next. This thoughtful combination of sensory discovery, open-ended play and socially responsible craftsmanship makes Pit and Play a wonderful example of how simple materials can offer rich and meaningful opportunities for play.
