When it comes to books, we prefer it light and simple, basically because of ease of mobility. However, the same cannot be said for kids between 0-4 years who are generally rough, aggressive handlers.
They’ll certainly get your book destroyed if they get hold of it.
This is why board books are the best and most popular book format for them.
Now, what are board books?
Board books are the types of books with each of their pages made of thick paper boards. Hence the name. They are always relatively small, between 4×4 square inches to 12×12 square inches.
Though the sizes can be customized to suit the taste of the project owner. However it may be, they are always small enough to enable toddlers to hold and turn effortlessly, with their little fingers.
When it comes to board book production, there is always one thing in mind – durability. Since children are generally rough handlers, these book types can withstand their handling, biting, chewing, and other crazy stuff that children do.
The graphics are always different from regular graphics. It is usually of bright illustrations, otherwise known as animations, with strong contrast. This makes it easier to capture the attention of young children.
It is always in a simple style, with a simple story and a very simple concept. The attention span of kids is extremely short, so they are usually written in simple lines of text, usually between 1 to 3 lines.
Board books have flaps, cut-outs, or pop-outs built into the design, to make the storyline interesting and interactive for kids.
All four corners of a board book are typically rounded, to prevent injuries to kids. Board books can only be made by specialists because they require specific equipment, professionalism, and expertise.
