Colour Chronicles

Memory Journals to Capture the Magic and Mayhem of Family Life, For Every Family.

At Colour Chronicles we make bright, joyful journals for every age and stage, thoughtfully designed to be inclusive for all families. 

As the wonderful chaos of family life speeds by, our fill-in-together books are designed to help kids and their grown-ups slow down, connect, and share stories. They are a chance to have fun, see the world through each other’s eyes, and save special memories.

We have three books:

‘The Book of You: A record of childhood’ - filled out once a year from age one to sixteen and unique because it includes questions for the child from age three which mature as the years go by and it all ends with a note to their future self along with hopes and predictions for the future.

‘The Baby Book of You: A record of your first year’ - filled out monthly for the first year with extras including preparations for arrival, our world in pictures, welcome messages from family and friends, and more.

‘The Book of Me & You: A record of us’ - for children and a grown up to share the things that make them, them, in this keep-forever memory book. Introductions, history, and advice from the grown up as well as twelve fill-in-together chapters covering everything from celebrations to style.  

We believe in celebrating every family - single parents, same sex parents, adoptive parents, bonus parents and blended families. Family members who are gay or straight, trans or cis, able-bodied, disabled and neuro-diverse.

Our books are all created with inclusivity in mind and are 100% judgement free zones. We don’t assume how babies arrive, and we don’t assume which ‘firsts’ are important or which grown ups matter the most. Our journals are designed to create a record of growing up that is as unique as any family.

‘Those books may become the most important things we own.’ - Dave Burden, new Daddy.

Colour Chronicles. Celebrate every family.
