National Coloring Book Day

Did you know that August 2 is National Coloring Book Day? Well, now you do! 

Did you know that coloring has benefits even for adults? Coloring is equated with meditation. It is low-stress and it relaxes the brain. (See 3 Reasons Adult Coloring Can Actually Relax Your Brain) Coloring also keeps those fine motor skills tuned up and improves your mental focus. (See Health Benefits of Coloring for Adults).

Did you know that I have a coloring book out? My artist friend Claudia and I combined our talents (hers is artist and mine was just compiling the information) to create a coloring book about Moroleon, Guanajuato. 

And did you know that for the next few days, in honor of National Coloring Book Day, you can get The History of Moroleon for Kids free at Amazon?history of moroleon
