What coloring books should I buy for a picky child?

By: Clarissa on Sep 30, 2025 07:14 AM EST
Hello, coloring book lovers! I'm trying to find a good coloring book. I love coloring, but I'm picky about coloring books. These days, I usually use children's ones because I'm a child myself, but they're too simple. I've tried adult ones, but they just irritate and stress me out.
I really like coloring books with lots of objects, but these objects are easy to color. Essentially, this is a more detailed children's coloring book. I'm not a big fan of coloring mandela and zentangles. I'll add a few examples in the comments (the pages aren't mine and I didn't make them, I just found them on Google).
And yes, I know it's a little ridiculous how picky I am about coloring books, but if they're not right, it just stresses me out, so please be polite :))))

To make it easier to stay within the lines, it's best to choose coloring pages with thick outlines and a variety of objects on the page. Detailed children's coloring pages like https://wowcoloring2kids.com/tails-coloring-pages/ are ideal for you. They feature a lot of objects on the page, but the lines are simple and easy to color. It's easiest to use medium-soft colored pencils or felt-tip pens, coloring the larger objects first and then moving on to smaller details. You can add subtle shadows and highlights. This makes the picture bright and beautiful, even if the objects are simple.

Finding the right coloring book can be really difficult. Some are too simple and quickly become boring, while others are filled with tiny details that only tire your eyes and ruin your mood. It's actually quite logical that you're looking for something in between children's and adult coloring books.
