What colors of food or drink are more appealing to typical elementary school children?

Question

This is part of my Psychology project.

Answer 1

Children respond best to primary colors, reds, blues, yellows.

Answer 2

I would imagine, since they are so young, that bright and lively colors would be more appealing, just like when all those wierd foods came out a few years back(green ketchup, red french fries). All of which were probably designed to appeal to kids. I dont know many grown-ups that would want to eat red fries. Also when i was a kid i always liked juice b/c of all the colors/flavors that it came in(grape, watermelon, strawberry/kiwi). Notice also that food industries such as lunchables use bright colors such as yellow and red on their boxes to draw kids' attention.

Answer 3

I would say bright colors like red. Red is usually the color of cherry or strawberry flavored foods or candies which attract children. Green and orange could go either way, as they are often colors of vegetables that children may not like.

Answer 4

I would say red. Why don't you put different colors of drinks on the table and record it for your experiment,and see which drink gets picked the most.

Answer 5

Red, blue, and green are more appealing for kids. Make them vivid as well.

Answer 6

for food, reds and oranges. warm colors make them feel comfortable. and being comfortable at meal time helps to improve social comfort in general. for drinks, it's similar. unless all they get is milk, then most of them want to see brown!!

Answer 7

I know my kids love anything red, blue, purple, and green. I have strange kids, they love their veggies! I am so blessed! Good Luck!
