Sure, I don't view "IP" as valid, don't entertain the idea that it is possible to "steal" it, and absolutely don't care that someone out there might be sad imagining me making a coloring book for my kids. In fact I'd go so far as to say that holding the position that there's something wrong with tailoring teaching to a child's interests and avoiding that for fear of copyright concerns of all things actually makes you morally bad.

You overestimate how many there are. There's like 10 stories at that level. I do also read ones with paragraphs to her, but she can't do those herself because she's 4.

Ah the old sovereign citizen reverse uno. It's actually evil NOT to use the art theft machine to dumb down your children.

That is not IP theft, that's private use. If (s)he tries to sell those coloring books, that's then theft. You're free to do anything you want with IP in privacy, it's only when selling or exhibiting to the public IP law is triggered. Knock yourself out with protected IP in private.

You're thinking of fair use, and that's the worst interpretation of it I've seen.

But it's true. You can do anything you want with private IP in private. It is the dissemination and distribution of IP that not yours that is the issue.
