The brand has expanded its retail offerings, building on the success of its popular collectable children’s book series, called the Green Bean Collection, to develop a range of educational eco toys and games. Since the brand launched in 2019, developing children’s entertainment productions has been at the forefront of the team’s plans. Earlier this year, Green Bean Studios released the demo of their first children’s music album, Time To Dance, and they currently have an animated children’s TV series in development. This children's brand foundation started with a fictional character, Green Bean, who lives in Adventure Dales along with friends Mr Bear, Rosie, Beckett, Bobby, Fleur and Harley. Each character has a custom made woodland home which has a human-style kitchen, human-style furniture. The friends come together to learn and play at the local school called 'Kinderdales', where Rosie teaches various fun subjects that include numeracy, literacy, arts and crafts, and cooking. The Green Bean Collection first went on sale in Waterstones, on Deansgate in Manchester. The leading character drew high demand from little fans, who were eager to learn and have adventures with Green Bean. This led to a collectable series that grew across independent book and toy shops in the UK and beyond.
