One of our core missions is to support children’s speech and language skills with early intervention, helping prepare them for formal education. Throughout the lockdowns, we provided families with free learning resources to support children’s ongoing education and social/emotional development whilst they were off school and unable to socialise with their peers.

Stories teach us about the world, helping us to see new perspectives and empathise with others. They support our wellbeing, providing entertainment, escapism, and acting as a mirror through which we can better understand ourselves and others. Aside from these benefits, storytelling has a huge impact on children’s development, helping them to learn key literacy and communication skills.  Research shows that reading for pleasure is the most important factor for determining a child’s success throughout life. Despite this, statistics show that the number of children reading for pleasure has been declining over the past decade and continues to decrease year on year. Sir Michael Morpurgo recently spoke on BBC Radio 4's programme, highlighting the crisis that children’s reading is facing. Michael, along with current laureate Joseph Coelho, and prominent authors such as Julia Donaldson, Dame Jacqueline Wilson, Sir Quentin Blake and Michael Rosen have written an open letter urging the government to invest in early years reading. Customer Review **** Customer Review **** We’ve carefully developed our books, toys, and games in line with the Early Years Foundation Stage Statutory Framework, with a multi-sensory approach to helping children learn through play and develop confidently. We host live interactive storytime sessions with Green Bean & Friends in community spaces, where families can enjoy fun adventure stories being brought to life with readings from founder and multi award-winning author Anita Frost, as well as readings from our other team members. Author events are a great way to spark children’s love of reading and inspire them on their reading journey, not only helping children to get excited about reading, but emphasising to parents and caregivers the importance of reading with children to support their development. |
