Where first words begin

“A child’s first words are usually labels. Babies will name and label people and things they love and are familiar with.”

How we draw every page

Created by humans. Made for kids. Loved by crayons.

  • A bear character being hand-drawn in pencil

    Hand-drawn

    Every illustration begins as a pencil sketch. Our illustrators draw animals with friendly faces, vehicles with personality — scenes simple enough for a two-year-old to recognize and detailed enough to keep a five-year-old entertained.

    Every page starts as a pencil sketch, drawn by hand.

  • The bear illustration digitally traced with bold outlines

    Digitally enhanced

    Each line is digitally traced and refined. No auto-trace, no shortcuts, no AI. The bold outlines are deliberately wide — easy for small hands to color inside.

    Traced and refined digitally — no auto-trace, no AI.

  • A child coloring the bear design with crayons

    Artist approved

    We test every design with the only artists who matter. If kids don’t want to color it, the design doesn’t print.

    Tested with real kids — if they won’t color it, it doesn’t print.

  • The finished colored page on a fridge

    Fridge-ready

    All it needs now is your child, their crayons, and a spot on the fridge.

Our story

Bip Bap Bop is a small studio making coloring books for the kids in our own lives. Our illustrators draw with their own children in mind — every design starts as a hand sketch and only makes it into a book if a real toddler wants to color it.

We’re not a content factory. We’re a small team that cares what your child spends their time on.

Common questions

What ages is the book best for?

This Big & Easy book is made for toddlers ages 1 to 3 — the stretch when first words and first scribbles arrive together. The extra-large pictures and extra-bold outlines suit little hands just learning to color, and the one-picture-one-word format grows with them as they begin to recognize and say each word.

Will markers bleed through the pages?

Designs are printed on one side of every page to minimize the risk of bleed-through. If your child is using thick markers, try placing a thick sheet of paper under the page they’re coloring.

How big are the pages?

Each page is 8.5 by 11 inches — standard US Letter size. The jumbo format gives small hands plenty of room to color comfortably.

How many designs are there?

60 single-sided pages, each pairing one simple picture with one clear word — everyday animals, vehicles, and objects a toddler knows: cat, dog, car, sun, fish, moon and more, in both portrait and landscape layouts. One picture, one word, no clutter — and no repeats or filler.

Why does the link go to Amazon?

Amazon handles printing, fulfillment, returns, and customer service for this book — which means fast Prime shipping and easy returns if you’re not happy. We earn a small commission on qualifying purchases at no extra cost to you.

How does this help my child learn words?

Each page shows one familiar picture and its word in big, solid letters. As your child colors, you name it together — “cat,” “dog,” “car” — pairing the picture with its word. That simple, repeated picture-and-word is exactly how toddlers build their first vocabulary. (Returns are handled by Amazon if it isn’t a fit.)

Do you make books on other topics?

Yes — we have books on trucks, farm animals, trains, baby animals, and more. The series grows as our team draws new ones.

Is this a good gift?

Yes — it’s a thoughtful first-birthday or new-baby gift, and a favorite with grandparents who want something both fun and educational. Pair it with a pack of chunky toddler crayons and you’re set.

One book. 60 first words.
