I agree resources are finite, but children who are about to enter working age, are free from radiation inflicted genetic damage, and can reproduce themselves seem like a logical addition to finite resources.

Crops are great because 1 seed can become 100
2 healthy humans can lead to 6 or 7
1 tractor eventually will fail (unless project magic can produce baby tractors )

I don't see that children being woken up at the same time as the rest of the project, but once communities have started to settle, and children are surviving childbirth again, I can see the kids being introduced into the communities to fill the age range where children might be scarce.

It may not be a big part of the project, maybe just 200 children at each regional base.
