[Shop ALL Fonts in Action Deals Now]( [Children]( Children Fonts for children’s products and services (clothing, books, toys, activities, packaging, foods, day care centers, etc.) should have fun in the neighborhood – the font neighborhood. Contextual type should be treated with the same respect as in any copy that is meant to be read. You can, however, lean toward fonts with an approachable and friendly mien. If the copy is meant to be read by children, confine your search to typefaces with simple, generous letter shapes, and avoid fonts with non-traditional letterforms. Typefaces with large x-heights are generally easier to read than those with modest x-heights. This is especially true for children. While you’ll have a lot more latitude in choosing display typefaces, designs that are wildly ornate, edgy, or contain unusual letter shapes should be avoided. This still leaves a tsunami of friendly playful designs. Soft shapes are almost always better than hard edges, and a bit of a bounce never hurts. Look to your inner-child, backed-up with some typographic smarts, to guide your choices.

[Type Trends] Cultivating contrast. A seemingly small nudge to the thickness of vertical or horizontal strokes can transform an ordinary font into something bursting with personality, enabling brands to stand out from the antiseptic or overly polished geometric and humanist sans we’ve seen over the past two decades. This trend reveals itself in two primary expressions, both of which use contrast to add a “dress-up” quality to the design, layering on the luxury as well as a hint of grandeur. Opulent sans welcomes contrast back to sans—sometimes in calligraphic flicks and ultra thins—and sometimes as a new take on Zapf’s mid-century Optima model. The “languid serif” plays with highly stylish, airy hairline thins, alongside organic curls set loose to meander into new forms. These two trends are complementary—two sides of the same coin and sometimes used hand-in-hand. Measured austerity. This trend is adjacent to a development we reported last year, called “Helvetica-not-Helvetica,” an upswell of typefaces that owe a chunk of their DNA to Helvetica but possess just enough wink-and-nod to be a bit different—or intentionally a bit off. Measured austerity is that—the default status of Helvetica—especially the very blank Regular weight of Helvetica. It’s also an embrace of the systematic sameness that became an aspect of the 20th century’s “international style.” But most of all, it’s an attitude. It’s punk. It’s a blank stare. It’s oversized, sometimes bedecked with discordant color. It’s under-designed and confidently so.
