Once upon a coffee-fueled afternoon, Maya and Rhea, two moms turned accidental entrepreneurs, were drowning in the chaos of crayons, craft supplies, and coloring books sprawled across their living room floors.
Between chasing toddlers and trying to finish their (now cold) coffee, a question popped up: “What if life didn’t have to be so… messy?”
Inspired by their shared love for art, crafts, and all things creative—and a desperate need to spend more meaningful, quality time with their kids—they stumbled upon the Japanese philosophy of Kanso.
It was like a lightbulb moment, but with glitters and color sticks.
Kanso, the idea of embracing simplicity, felt like the perfect antidote to their wonderfully chaotic lives.
And thus, The Kanso was born.
A playful brand of books—how-to-draw guides, coloring adventures, and activity books—designed not just for kids, but for parents too.
It’s all about slowing down, spending time together, and finding joy in the little things (like finally coloring within the lines… sometimes).
With Maya’s knack for turning doodles into masterpieces and Rhea’s talent for turning chaos into creative gold, they’ve created a world of fun that makes simplicity magical.
Whether you’re a kid or a kid-at-heart, The Kanso is here to spark your imagination—one page at a time.
So, grab a crayon (or twenty), find a cozy spot, and let’s embrace the art of simple joys together.
