Kids grow up so quickly. It feels like you blink and they’re at school, blink again and they’re teenagers.

Mum-of-two Ruth Sturdy has come up with a novel way of recording every part of growing up by way of an annual ritual.

The Colour Chronicles are a series of keepsake books that children can fill out with their parents, answering questions and drawing pictures to help capture that moment in time each birthday.
