Curiosity
"Why?" is where everything starts. We build experiences that invite one more question, and then another.
A new brand for curious kids
Every child is born curious.
Every child is born curious.
We just make room for it.
Curious Minds creates moments of discovery and making for children — around art, nature and the world around them. We start from their questions, and leave plenty of room for wonder.
Our values
Four things we believe in
The books are only the beginning. What ties everything we make together is one simple observation: kids already know how to ask, wonder and play. Our job is to stay out of the way — and hand them a world worth discovering.
Art
Great art doesn't belong only in museums. It can sit on the kitchen table, right next to a box of crayons.
Nature
Flowers, sea, birds and trees — the first inspiration of every artist, and of every child who looks around.
Innocence
There's no wrong way to colour. Skies can be pink and trees can be blue — just like the great artists did it.
Born from a love of art and of children — and made to bring the two together.From the back cover
Our first series
Meet-the-artist coloring books
Each book invites children to get to know one artist up close: hear their story, pick up a few words from the world of art, look at the original paintings — and then grab their colours and make a version of their own. Art and creativity for home, preschool and the classroom — and a unique gift kids actually use.

Henri Matisse

FAQ
Everything you wanted to know
What is Curious Minds?
Curious Minds is a children's brand born from a love of curiosity, art and nature. Our first series is a set of meet-the-artist coloring books featuring Vincent van Gogh, Henri Matisse, Frida Kahlo and Paul Gauguin.
What's inside each coloring book?
Each book has 24 pages of thick sketch paper: a meet-the-artist page, four illustrated story pages that each explain one art concept, a gallery of the original paintings in colour, and 16 perforated coloring pages based on the artist's real artworks.
Who are the books for?
For kids who love to colour, ask and discover — and for the grown-ups who colour with them: parents, grandparents, preschool and art teachers. They also suit museums, museum shops and gift shops looking for a quality art product for children.
Is an art coloring book a good gift?
Yes. It's a unique, thoughtful gift for birthdays, holidays or a visit to the grandparents: it combines creativity, learning and screen-free time together, and introduces children to great artists in a playful way. You can also give the whole series — four artists in four books.
How can teachers use the books in class?
Each book works as a ready-made art lesson: tell the artist's story, talk about one concept (such as sketch, colour palette, symbol or composition), look at the original artworks together, then let every child tear out a coloring page and make their own version.
Which artists are in the series?
The first series features four artists: Vincent van Gogh (sketch, self-portrait, colour palette, inspiration), Henri Matisse (the Salon, Fauvism, recurring motif, technique), Frida Kahlo (self-portrait, symbol, colour, Surrealism) and Paul Gauguin (journey, culture, inspiration, composition).
Where can I get the books?
The books aren't sold on the website yet. Museums, shops, schools and distributors are welcome to contact us through the contact form about partnerships and orders, and parents can leave their details to hear first.
