There has been a large rise in children presenting in settings with additional needs since the Covid-19 pandemic. Consequently settings are under increased pressure to find resources to support skill development including personal, social and emotional development.

Let’s Grow, created by husband and wife team Ben and Mimi Faulks, is a project with its roots in a street theatre show created in 2006. It uses baby fruit and vegetable characters to facilitate learning in a fun and imaginative way.
