Garden Fun
New to our ever-growing Garden range! Go green and grow your very own Green Bean Plant with our brand new Green Bean’s Bean Pack seeds. It is the perfect gardening activity to get children involved in outdoor activities. Plant the bean seeds and watch the magic as your very own green bean plant grows! Plant outdoors from May, with flowers from July to September. Sow seeds 1cm deep in a plant pot filled with compost then place in a sunny position. Adult supervision is required. One way that families can support wildlife at home is by making their outdoor spaces more attractive to insects. Beckett's Bee Seed Mix is a specially selected mixture of annual flowers that will attract and feed Bees. Healthy Screen Time Green Bean & Friends inspires children to love the natural world, care for the environment, and enjoy being outdoors. This is a response to the growing popularity of mobile technology and the increase in children’s screen time, and how this has impacted the way children learn and interact with their surroundings. We recently launched a new series of videos called Play and Learn, featuring some of our genuine and devoted fans. Turning the tables for these videos, we let children take the lead, as they explore and play with the toys and games from our collection, discussing what they like about them and giving viewers an authentic experience of our range with feedback from a child’s perspective. These insights and feedback from children themselves are of key importance to our business and demonstrate the real love children have for our brand and products.

Founded on 20+ years of child development experience, we’re passionate about seeing children play, learn and go on fun outdoor adventures. We aim to reach every child to help them develop key skills, prepare them for formal education, and enable them to thrive, one child at a time. Our three core pillars are Community, Earth, and Kids. We welcome new ambassadors and partnerships to help us support more children and families globally. If you would like to become an ambassador or partner or book a private event with us please contact [email protected] Through our ongoing partnerships and ambassadors' engagement with local communities, libraries, schools, and councils across Manchester and the UK, we continue to enable children to develop and reach their full potential. With author events and brand engagements, we are building communities of parents, educators, ambassadors and investors who share our passion for outdoor adventures, learning through play and reading for pleasure. Here are some of our ambassadors and partners locally, regionally, and nationally:
Educator
The Green Bean Collection supports children with SEN by providing a multi-sensory approach to learning – our toys are designed to work alongside our books to give children with additional needs more ways to learn and engage with reading. Our books, toys, games, TV, music and live events/attractions have all been developed in line with the Early Years Foundation Stage Statutory Framework to support children’s early learning. From our board books for babies, to our early reader paperbacks for key stage 1 children, we have a solid brand foundation for supporting children with literacy, numeracy, and interpersonal skills. We partner with several Early Years Educators who are ambassadors for Green Bean Studios, supporting our mission to give children the best start in life.

Earth, Community, and KidsGreen Bean’s Garden A Fun Sensory Book“The beautifully presented book has illustrations that are bright and bold and are suitable for stimulating the development of young children. The pages are sturdy to encourage fine motor skills in page turning, though these, due to the length of the story, do make the book quite heavy, so the book may need to be supported if a young child wanted to look at it independently. The flaps promote early pincer movement, fine motor skills, and eye - hand coordination really, really well, and are durable for little fingers! The flaps all hold additional parts of the story, to encourage the excitement of what happens next. The next book in my series of collectable children’s stories is Green Bean’s Garden, a fun and interactive board book taking children on a journey to explore the garden with their favourite characters from the Green Bean Collection. Seeing children learn and develop confidently through reading and playing makes my role so rewarding as an author and entrepreneur. Working hard with the talented team at Green Bean Studios, we’ve carefully designed this new book to get children excited about reading books and help them understand the world around them. Young children are the workforce of the future and as a business leader and mother I understand the importance of investing in our children’s education whilst supporting their mental and physical health. Doing so from an early age not only benefits children, but benefits society as a whole, bringing up the next generation to be confident and competent which will boost the economy and ensure these individuals thrive. Reading for pleasure is a very important factor for enabling children to succeed in the stepping stones from nursery, to school, further education and then into work, and this new book is one more tool out of many from Green Bean Studios that is helping more children to love reading and giving them the best chances to reach their full potential.
