Wreck This Journal Color

Wreck This Journal: Now in Color is the perfect outlet for creativity, stress relief, and just letting go. The prompts are quirky, bold, and even a little chaotic, in the best way. Adding color makes it even more fun to flip through and interact with. It’s not about being perfect; it’s about getting messy, being playful, and doing something different. Whether you’re an artist or just need a break from structure, this journal is a blast to work through.

My bonus daughter has been going through a bit of a rough patch lately. She loves to draw/sketch, colors, create, and be creative. She doesn’t follow the crowd, she paves her own way. Being only 10 I feel like she is very self aware that she is different than most other kids. Which I think is amazing and a great thing! She was born to stand out rather than be a carbon copy cookie cutter version of someone else. When I came across this journal I was actually looking for something for my son. I thought he would find this interesting however he’s not very hands on and will actually sit still and do this. He would rather create a new type of aircraft and test it at the speed of sound to make changes as far as durability than be creative in THIS way. Bonus daughter’s face lit up when she saw this book. I asked her if she would like to try it and she said “yes”! She was excited and I was excited to see her excited to try something new after the week she had. I can admit it was challenging for me to let go of “control” when she asked for paint to dip her hands on the make handprints on a specific page. However I remembered why I got it for her in the first place, dug out the acrylic paint, she picked yellow, and on top of brown craft paper at her fathers work desk she put her yellow hand prints all over the pages that asked for this. I would recommend this book to anyone. Adult or child. I feel like if you know someone well enough you will know if they will be engaged by this book or not. At first I thought my son and purchased it. I’m glad though that I have it to my bonus daughter because she’s enjoying it so much, and in such a time of need. She’s able to express herself in ways and be challenged on her self expression. This was easily worth the money and the smile on a child’s face. Buy this book. If it’s not for you: I can guarantee you will fine someone to give it to quickly. 10/10 recommended.

The media could not be loaded. This gets you off your phone and sparks your creativity! It's so much fun. Great for teens!

If you don't have one yet WHY NOT?!?! I promise this thing will challenge anyone. It will challenge your mental blocks and it's A BLAST. My book is almost ready for its glorious completion. Oh and maybe grab a few copies for friends and work on your journals together.

This book is weird- a little uncomfortable, super strange, and seemingly fabulous. I got this as a gift for my creative and artistic sister and I cannot wait to see what she does with it. Some pages definitely read a little more juvenile (chew this page, rip this page out and wash it in the washing machine- what adult will do that and risk clogging up the machine?!) but many of the pages are thought provoking and unexpected. I think this book will allow the reader to unlock some unexpected creativity - many of the provocations are not things one would think of on their own. I gave it a four because I know without a doubt there are a few of these my sister will not do (create something with disgusting subject matter like poop, boogers, etc.) but I do hope she ties a string around the journal and hits the wall with it. I think this would be an absolute hit with kids age 8- 18, and still super fun for adults (with just skipping some pages here and there). I cannot wait to see this after a few months of strange creativity and permission to be weird.

The media could not be loaded. absolutely love this journal! so so soooo many activities to keep you busy, and the supplies you need are just everyday household items! very fun and engaging, and helps get rid of perfectionism. also keeps your mind off anxiety and stress. very helpful and I really love it! the activities vary from sow this page, infuse this page, drop journal from a high place, freeze this page, press flowers, poke holes in this page, and so much more! there's even activities and a cut out postcard on the cover jacket. so fun and engaging! hours worth of activities to do. worth the money!

Nice journey, fun on the inside activities
