| dc.description.abstract | Children's understanding of the world is largely shaped by their visual perception of their surroundings, with colour playing an integral role. Colour not only creates a visual impact but also has a profound influence on children's emotions, cognition, and behavior. This study explored colour planning strategies for children’s outdoor playgrounds in communities, specifically focusing on children’s colour preferences. We collected data through a questionnaire survey conducted in Shanghai, China, and employed the chi-square test and single-factor logistic regression to analyze the correlations between colour preferences and individual attributes of children, including gender, age, and community type, which we hypothesized could influence the diversity of children’s color preferences. It is found that there exist significant differences in children’s colour preferences across various ages and community types. Based on the children’s colour preferences and preferences differences, we proposed several strategies for colour planning of children's outdoor playgrounds in the communities. Through these strategies, it aims to enhance the scientificity and universality of colour planning. Overall, this research contributes to the field by providing evidence-based recommendations for colour planning in children's outdoor playgrounds, ultimately contributing to the creation of more inclusive and vibrant child-friendly communities.
