$33.00 inc. GST

This water-reveal colouring book for seniors brings nature scenes to life with plain water
Each sheet in this pack is pre-loaded with watercolour pigments that activate on contact with water. Residents wet a brush, stroke it across the paper, and watch birds, forests, and wildlife scenes bloom into colour. There’s no skill required, no numbered outlines, and no pressure to get anything right. It suits people in the mid to late stages of dementia who benefit from low-demand, sensory-focused activities. It can also support aqua painting for people living with dementia programs where calm engagement is the priority.
