When a grateful father cherishes his baby with kisses and a special chant, his ticker wobbles. A tradition is born & becomes their bonding ritual that not even smelly diapers, fender benders, nose rings, & a final goodbye can break. This is Us for dads & daughters #PBPitch

When mishaps cause Mia and her favorite pants to come apart at the seams, she picks herself up & self-regulates with breathing exercises. With no pants left to wear, Mia comes up with a clever solution & enlists Grandma’s help. Things are great until—RRR-IP! #PBPitch #SEL

When Seth escapes chores and boredom in a homemade rocket, he solves out-of-this-world problems and has a blast completing space missions, and chores. A SPACE-A-LICIOUS reward is enjoyed with Grandma by the fire pit, on the blue planet with one moon. #PBPitch

When too much cash overtakes financially savvy Mia’s life, she opens a bank account to help manage her money in the hopes of returning to the joys of childhood. The cranky bank teller calls the police on her because she has too much money for a kid. #PBPitch #Financial Literacy

When anxious Sam clings to Grandma at a party, Sam gradually builds the confidence to be independent while searching for the birthday girl in a cosmic setting. Kids in nebulas, on the moon, sliding off comets, lead to a BIG BANG and the missing birthday girl. #PBPitch #SEL

When SCOWLY OWLY OLIVER from Canada’s north seeks a friend, he learns sharing, kindness, helping, and asking permission the hard way when Muskox, Raven, & Polar Bear say no. Arctic Fox finally says yes after Oliver offers to help her learn how to be a friend. #PBPitch #SEL

When the WEATHER BUG forecast calls for sparkling snows of kindness, angry thunderstorms of meanness, & foggy mists that make it hard to do our work, this MC shows us we have the power to weather the nasty bugs & celebrate the gifts of atmospheric conditions. #C #L #SEL #PBPitch

[Dianne Koebel-Pede @dkpedewrites]

When Sam is exhausted and dejected from trying to control a RACE CAR BRAIN all day, a cuddle-chat with Dad is the spark this MC needs to remember the gifts of ADHD and solve a homework problem by making a poster to share at school. #OWN #DIS #SEL #PBPitch

@EricRWalters What a great way to cherish memories!

Cosmic mashup=a space adventure b’day party + MC with a constellation in his tummy. Not even the aerospace engs or astronomers know where the birthday girl is. A docking station gone mad, kids in nebulas & mom in black hole, lead to a BIG BANG & other discoveries #PBPitch

When a grateful father cherishes his baby with kisses & a special chant, a tradition is born & becomes part of their ritual. Wobbly tickers, smelly diapers, nose rings, & a final good-bye can’t break their bond. 2023 for dads & daughters meets Love You Forever #PBPitch
