Our Journey and Mission
Empowering the next generation to thrive is at the heart of everything we do. This vision is led by our founder and child development specialist, Anita Frost. With over two decades of experience in early years development, Anita established Green Bean Studios—the vibrant home of the Green Bean world—by combining social science, imagination, and innovation. Centered around this foundation, our mission is to transform the way children play, learn, and experience wonderful adventures. Understanding that modern challenges like excessive screen time and a lack of outdoor activities can hinder healthy development, we focus on providing meaningful solutions that create a positive impact. At the heart of Green Bean Studios are three core pillars—COMMUNITY, EARTH, and KIDS—which we combine with our messaging and core company values of Fun, Adventure, Nature, Lovable, Social & Emotional Development, and Wanting more to make our content truly unique. Through these pillars and values, we are proud to support a wonderful community of individuals, including parents, grandparents, educators, and anyone buying gifts. Manchester kids’ IP Producer Supports the ChildrenWe are pleased to announce that we are entering our next phase of growth following record sales 📈💚and successful national partnerships. We all know the economic challenges brought over the last five years, with the creative sector facing an increase in obstacles ranging from the rising use of AI to funding barriers. Over the last decade, statistics have not shifted for female founders accessing investments, and a severe imbalance remains for female founders of colour accessing funds at any level.  Despite these barriers and industry noise, Green Bean and the team led by founder Anita Frost continue to make a profound impact on children's lives 🍃 by forming partnerships with leaders who acknowledge these gaps and take action to invest in, support, and champion the creative industry, female founders, and female founders of colour. With this momentum, we are thrilled to share the great news that we are growing once again. Our heartfelt thanks go out to all of our supporters, cheerleaders, and ambassadors 💚 🪁 .
