Make the colors work
More than a set of swatches.
Keep instructions grounded
Storybook Plum places the learning controls in plum and leaves mint to illustration. Kite Blue uses blue for a predictable next step, so a changing story image does not move the action hierarchy.
Design for the actual reader
Color choices do not establish age suitability or learning effectiveness. Test language, target size, focus and reading comfort with the intended people; keep controls usable with a keyboard.
Make progress understandable
Use words and symbols alongside completion colors. Try success, warning and correction messages in the studio without relying on a red-green distinction.
