Goodbye screens, hello laughter to truly connect with your children and grandchildren right now

Oh my, raise your hand if you haven't felt a little guilty seeing your little one glued to a phone or tablet screen. I know, it's a daily battle, and sometimes we give in to temptation because we need a break. But deep down, we know that the best gift we can give them (and ourselves) is quality time together, with no interrupting notifications. Let's admit it. Thinking precisely about this—how to help parents and grandparents reclaim those magical family moments away from the digital world—two paper gems by author Kristina Farkas have been born that are sure hits because they combine entertainment, values, and lots of tenderness.

The first is a true marvel for reading cuddled up on the sofa. It's called Echoes of Tomorrow: Fables for the Modern World and it's a book that reinvents classic stories to adapt them to today's children. Forget boring speeches or endless texts; here you'll discover short, dynamic tales that become the perfect compass to instill essential values in their hearts that we never want to lose, such as patience, discernment, and personal growth. Imagine grandparents sharing these readings with their grandchildren, sparking beautiful discussions, and creating memories that the little ones will cherish forever, long after mobile phones go out of style. Available in print and eBook. And for those moments when the body craves relaxation and a chance to let imagination run wild, there's Stellar Adventures: Your Magical Horoscope, a coloring book that is pure visual love. It's filled with adorable kawaii-style drawings representing the zodiac signs in a super cute and fun way. It's such a simple, entertaining, and stress-free activity that I assure you, you'll end up stealing a page from your child to color it yourself with a good set of colored pencils. Only available in print.

Life goes by very fast, and screens steal too many hugs from us. I invite you to enter this wonderful paper universe, look at it calmly, and enjoy it to the fullest with your family, sharing laughter, colors, and beautiful conversations with those you love most.
