The Independence Initiative
The Let Grow Project and Play Club can be done with a single classroom but over the years, we’ve learned more is better! Teachers and administrators have seen the benefits of expanding the Let Grow philosophy and making child independence a pillar of their school culture. Our Independence Initiative will be a complete curriculum, including content, materials, and media for parents, students, and staff that are comprehensive and can be used out-of-the-box, but also are flexible and customizable for any school. How much class time you spend is up to you, as the school’s main task after introducing the Initiative is to assign the Project as homework once a month (or more), educate and engage parents (we’ll give you everything you need) and provide opportunities for celebration of growth. Let Grow is an easy and natural supplement to your existing character, SEL, or other programs.
Self-directed kids make better learners
Help parents learn the importance of stepping back, so their kids can step up.
Kids who are allowed to take small risks and figure things out themselves at home will have more grit and determination at school.
Kids naturally become more empathetic. They learn to see and celebrate their peers’ unique skills and interests.

She found the Let Grow Project and never looked back. Watch the video to see the huge impact The Project made in her anxious students’ lives.
