On this occasion I present the entire relationship of color with child psychology.
I hope this article will be appreciated by all readers.

Color is the bright place of childhood. Children love all kinds of colors and give an instant response. However, the response of children differs from the reaction of adults. If you are going to communicate with children, color must become your ally. But you need to use the language of color correctly. Children use a limited palette, which expands as they grow older.

Color is the first characteristic that children can distinguish. We have all heard that children perceive only the colors black and white (light and dark). Young parents often paint the nursery in black and white, buy black and white toys and other things. But in the period of six weeks to two months the situation undergoes radical changes. The first children begin to distinguish the color red. Later they begin to perceive other bright colors, including yellow.

Young children are attracted to bright colors. Extensive academic research shows that children’s age preferences change. Many children under the age of 10 call red (or pink) and yellow their favorite colors. But having grown above ten, they begin to prefer blue. We consider that it is with the process of growth and the appearance of the ability to perceive different shades of humor.

Color preferences are closely related to gender. Extensive research shows that most girls prefer pink, lavender or purple. Little boys like black and other dark colors better than little girls. The question has been raised as to whether these preferences are innate or acquired. Adults get children used to liking certain colors when choosing their clothes and toys. It’s hard to give the exact answer, but we tend to believe that color preferences are innate. It is a difficult problem to solve in the future.

Do toy makers know? Walk through the toy department, you will see that they are very aware of children’s color preferences and use color to attract children’s attention and sell their products, as a company that works for adults, they use the same strategies: characteristics of trade color. brand, emphasizing certain features with the help of colors.

Speaking of emphasizing certain characteristics through colors, gender identification is just one example. If you see any product in brightly colored packaging, then the manufacturer wants to affect children and wants them to be the target audience. Some parents think that manufacturers play too cynically with children’s feelings. But remember, how many times has color motivated children to take some positive action.

Color is the great means to manipulate children and adolescents. This means is used differently and brings different results. Not only sellers and manufacturers use children’s interest in colors. You can also use it to teach, motivate and inspire new generations.

The language of color and children.

First, let’s consider how children become familiar with colors. They learn to tell them apart long before they know the names of the colors. They point to the correct objects, before they can say ‘red’, ‘yellow’ or ‘green’. Children learn the names of colors between the ages of 2 and 5. Girls tend to memorize color names earlier than boys. Of course, all children develop differently, since the growth process is related to the state of the nervous system.

If you want to help children learn to distinguish colors, try to make children learn colors by associating them with the materials of the corresponding color. Here are typical associations, understandable to an average child

Yellow – bananas, lemons, sun

Red – apples, tomatoes

Blue – jeans, sky

Green – peas, grass, leaves

Gray – an elephant

Brown – a bear, tree bark

Research shows that, for example, when you show a child a blue apple and ask what it is, it takes longer for them to recognize it. Surely if you communicate with young children, you know what can happen. A blue apple may seem funny to them. It testifies that a child develops a sense of humor, the ability to laugh at clumsy and wrong things.

Once a child has learned to recognize and name colors, it helps him learn new information. Parents always want to teach children safety rules. We found that emphasizing certain qualities through color helps children remember what is dangerous. Remember that the human eye notices the combination of yellow and black, and the brain automatically perceives this as a sign of danger. Use these colors to mark things you don’t want your kids to play with. You can also mark the rooms in your house that your children should not go to and that are dangerous, such as the stairs or the basement. When your children grow up, you can still use colors to teach them. Some research has shown that children with attention problems do better on a task when they are stimulated with colors. The improvement was as significant as when drugs were used. It means that the color can be used in medicine.
The color can also be used in food if your child does not like to eat the same dull and boring food.
