Many parents love to buy Colouring Books for children. The colouring books keep children engaged.
But are colouring books good for them?
I do not encourage toddlers using these books. These books make children passive about art and they tend to restrict themselves when it comes to creativity. Give them plain paper and colours instead and let them enjoy expressing in their own way.
For older kids, especially kids above 9 years of age, colouring books does help them to relax. I found children experimenting with colours too.
There are many colouring books which combine doodling and other activities along with colouring and I would recommend buying these books instead. You can carry them for long road trips and also to restaurants.
Here is the list of 7 best colouring books that you can buy online in India.

There are currently two books in this series, Sita and Jaya. These books have a unique way of retelling the stories of Ramayana and Mahabharata. The illustrations of different events are beautifully depicted in these books. I found my daughter learning many characters and incidents of these epics through these illustrations.
The paper quality of these books are quite good and watercolour can be a medium to paint them.
