MEET THE CREATOR

Meet Ryan Balchand.

Color & Learn Adventures began with a dad making books for his own children. Ryan Balchand, creator and publisher of the series, is a father of twin boys, now 14. When they were younger, he made books for them and saw how those pages helped them learn about new subjects. That family experience is at the heart of the series today.

Each print book brings together color-by-number pictures, fascinating facts, and questions for children ages 6–9. From ocean creatures to famous landmarks, these adventures give parents a simple way to enjoy screen-free time with their children—coloring, talking, and discovering something new together.

A FEW HELPFUL ANSWERS

For the grown-ups.

Choosing a book should feel easy. Here’s what to know before your next adventure.

What is Color & Learn Adventures?

Color & Learn Adventures is a growing series by Ryan Balchand that brings coloring, reading, facts, and activities together. The print books are coloring and activity books, and select titles are also available as Kindle reading editions. The published collection explores animals, landmarks, prehistoric life, garden creatures, space, plants, and weather.

What ages are the published books for?

The published books are designed for ages 6–9. An adult can help with reading and questions whenever useful. Check each book page for its available editions.

Where can I buy the books?

Every book is sold on Amazon. Use the Amazon buttons on the book cards above or on each book’s page. Ocean Animals and Their Homes is available in paperback, hardcover, and Kindle. Amazing Animals of the World is available in paperback, hardcover, and Kindle. Famous Landmarks of the World is available in paperback, hardcover, and Kindle.

Are the books available on Kindle?

Yes. Ocean Animals and Their Homes, Amazing Animals of the World, Famous Landmarks of the World, Dinosaurs and Prehistoric Life, Amazing Plants of the World, and Weather and Water Wonders are available on Kindle as an illustrated reading edition, with full-color pictures and short reading lessons. Because the pictures are already colored, the Kindle edition is for reading together, not coloring, and it doesn’t include the print book’s write-in activities. For coloring, choose a print edition. Bugs and Garden Creatures and Space and Our Solar System have Kindle editions coming soon.

Do we need to read the books in order?

No. Each book can be explored on its own. Start with the subject your child is most curious about.

What does “Coming soon to Amazon” mean?

That book or edition isn’t on Amazon yet. We list new titles and formats here early, then add a direct Amazon link as soon as each one goes live.

What supplies should we use?

For the print coloring books, colored pencils or crayons work best. The Kindle reading editions need only a Kindle device or the free Kindle app. Bring a little curiosity, and leave room to talk about what you discover.
