I Wasn’t Going to Make Another Book So Soon… But Then This One Practically Wrote Itself

Let me be honest.
I had zero plans to launch another coloring book this quickly.
But then I started thinking about that moment ... you know the one. When your child covers their ears in a shopping mall, hides under the blanket because the light is "too light," or has a full-body meltdown because their sock is coming off.
That moment where you think, “The world is just too much.”
And then I thought, what if there was a coloring book that felt like a deep breath?
No loud pages.
No screaming colors.
Just calm, gentle, sensory friendly magic
So I grabbed a cup of coffee (okay, three), whispered “you’ve got this” to myself, and Gentle Colors was born.
💚 Gentle Colors: A Low Stimulation Coloring Book for Sensory Sensitive Kidsis for every child who’s ever said, “It’s too bright. Too loud. Too fast.”And every parent who’s whispered back, “I know, baby. Let’s slow down.”
This book isCalmCozySoothing like a soft blanket and a quiet room with fairy lights(And maybe snacks. Definitely snacks)
It’s filled with✨ Big open spaces✨ Slow, simple drawings✨ Breathing prompts and movement activities✨ Little moments of quiet connection for kids and their grownups
It’s the coloring book I wish I had when my child couldn’t find the words for “I need a break”
And if your child is that sensory soft, deep feeling, world is a lot typethis book was made for them.
Honestly It was made for you too.
So yeah I wasn’t going to make another book right away. But this one didn’t wait its turn. It came to life in a rush of inspiration, compassion, and crayons

And sometimes… the gentlest things change everything
