A Children’s Wellness Brand Rooted in Story, Built for Real Life

From SEL storybooks and plush companions to our signature StoryTents™, every product supports emotional growth, creative expression, and connection—wherever life unfolds.

Our Story

At Pitch A Fête, we believe play is more than fun—it’s a powerful pathway to emotional growth.
We create sensory-rich, story-driven tools that help children process feelings, build confidence, and connect through imagination.

What began as a way to bring calm and connection into one child’s everyday life has grown into a mission-driven brand supporting families around the world.
From SEL storybooks and DIY plush pal kits to our signature sensory StoryTents™, each product is designed to meet children where they are—emotionally, developmentally, and imaginatively.

Our tools are grounded in the science of social-emotional learning and inspired by the rhythm of real family life.
We know that emotional development doesn’t pause for the perfect setting. That’s why our offerings are intentionally portable, printable, and practical—supporting children whether they’re at home, in school, or on the go.

Each story in our collection is offered in two formats: as a free printable for accessibility and as a keepsake edition available on Amazon.
This ensures that beautifully designed emotional support is never out of reach.

Pitch A Fête is a resource for families, educators, therapists, pediatricians, and hospitality partners seeking imaginative tools for emotional wellness.
We blend sensory design with developmental psychology to create environments where children can feel safe, calm, and free to explore who they are.

The brand was founded by Kaitlin B. Malaspina—a mother, writer, and creative strategist—who believes emotional tools should be as beautiful as they are effective.
Today, she leads Pitch A Fête with one guiding truth:
That childhood doesn’t wait—and neither should the tools to support it.

Our Core values

Inclusive Imagination

We honor the many ways children express themselves through play. Our characters and experiences are designed to reflect the diverse stories, strengths, and sensory needs of the children we serve—so every child can feel seen, safe, and celebrated.

Family Connection

We design for moments that matter. Our play-based tools invite shared joy, deepen bonds, and help families build connection through calm, creativity, and curiosity.

SUSTAINABILITY

We are committed to thoughtful sourcing and creative reuse. From upcycled materials to low-waste packaging, our products are intentionally crafted to support both the planet and the people who call it home.

Empathetic Hospitality

We believe hospitality is more than a destination—it’s a mindset. From a hotel suite to a school counselor’s office to a grandmother’s guest room, our products help create welcoming environments that rise to meet the emotional needs of children through sensory design, calm, and storytelling.

Pioneering Play

We reimagine what play can be—intentional, emotionally rich, and rooted in growth. Our tools support self-expression, resilience, and wonder, shaping the future of family life one story at a time.

INTENTIONAL ACCESS

We believe every child deserves tools that support their emotional wellbeing—and every mindful, well-intentioned adult guiding them should have access to those tools. That’s why each story in our collection is offered both as a free printable and as a beautifully crafted keepsake. No trade-offs. No gatekeeping. Just resources rooted in dignity, design, and the belief that support should meet children where they are.
