Adventure Awaits Outside was designed to address pressing needs in our 21st-century society which is the increased amount of screen time that youth have on a daily basis AND it addresses the colorism or feelings of "not belonging" that BIPOC individuals can experience in outdoor spaces. Kids no matter their race, gender, or background need to be reminded that they are not only valuable in this world but that someone sees that value and wants to see more of it in the world around them. Adventure Awaits Outside is all about reminding kids, and maybe adults too, that although the internet, movies, and social media can show us different perspectives of life, we have to go out to experience it ourselves. The Creative Representation Empire, TCRE, is a line of coloring books and other creative tools used to highlight, educate, and represent various cultures and identities. TCRE directly reflects the children that will color the books through curated photographs of real people to emphasize to children of color that they are not alone in life, their identity struggles, or their dreams. TCRE is a continuously growing catalog of books and tools representing different cultures, lifestyles, and ethnicities.
