1. “State the idea you wish to express as clearly as possible, and in terms preschoolers can understand.” Example: It is dangerous to play in the street.
2. “Rephrase in a positive manner,” as in It is good to play where it is safe.
3. “Rephrase the idea, bearing in mind that preschoolers cannot yet make subtle distinctions and need to be redirected to authorities they trust.” As in, “Ask your parents where it is safe to play.”
4. “Rephrase your idea to eliminate all elements that could be considered prescriptive, directive, or instructive.” In the example, that’d mean getting rid of “ask”: Your parents will tell you where it is safe to play.
5. “Rephrase any element that suggests certainty.” That’d be “will”: Your parents can tell you where it is safe to play.
6. “Rephrase your idea to eliminate any element that may not apply to all children.” Not all children know their parents, so: Your favorite grown-ups can tell you where it is safe to play.
7. “Add a simple motivational idea that gives preschoolers a reason to follow your advice.” Perhaps: Your favorite grown-ups can tell you where it is safe to play. It is good to listen to them.
8. “Rephrase your new statement, repeating the first step.” “Good” represents a value judgment, so: Your favorite grown-ups can tell you where it is safe to play. It is important to try to listen to them.
9. “Rephrase your idea a final time, relating it to some phase of development a preschooler can understand.” Maybe: Your favorite grown-ups can tell you where it is safe to play. It is important to try to listen to them, and listening is an important part of growing.

Yo you got any tips on how to pick out good color schemes and stuff? Youre really good at it, i swear looking at anything you post i just "ooh soft,, pretty colors" (if not thats chill, somethings ya just just can't explain)
Imma make ya a lil tutorial ;)
Picking colours has a lot to do with ~Colour Relativity~ also known as Value.
It doesn’t matter what colours you end up picking, you’ll need to start with this kind of balance. Use the KISS method; Keep It Super Simple. Too many colours can make your image muddy and/or confusing.
How to pick an awesome palette? Take a look at this cool shit.
Colour families can give your image a sense of unity. They’re also really handy for setting different moods. Warm colours are usually associated with high energy, big feelings like happiness and love! Cool colours are more subdued and carry heavier, slower connotations like sadness. Or just a KICK ASS AESTHETIC pic.
Bold colours are very fun to use but too many of them can hurt.
TL;DR:
Have dark, light, and midtones in your palette
Pick a colour & use colours similar to it
Limit your use of hyper-saturated colours.

I was walking through the toy aisle at Target when I found this thing and had a VIOLENT AND IMMEDIATE FLASHBACK to when JP first came out and they had a bunch of REALLY COOL T Rex toys that I would have sold one of my scrawny small-child limbs for but my mother wouldn’t get me one because they were “too violent and also ate people” :(
