The Importance of Children's Illustration to Children Abstract: Today, the children's illustrations designed by artists for children are fully recovering and have spread all over the modern design field. Children's illustrations are becoming more and more popular in book binding design, product design and print advertising design. It is not only exclusive to children, but also a childlike personality pursued by some trendy young people. Its value has extended from the traditional "endless literature to make up" to many fields. Keywords: children's illustration; Modern design; Diversified traditional children's illustrations are pictures that children use to supplement the text content and increase the visual sense and artistic atmosphere of the text when reading books. They are a form of artistic expression created by artists specially for children and suitable for children's appreciation. Functionally, it can help children understand the content of literary works, attract children's interest in literary works, and achieve the effect of education and aesthetic education. Its colors are bright and its pictures are lively and interesting. Simple, cute or weird. This kind of illustration is full of whimsy and creativity, and everyone can give full play to their unique imagination with their crayons. With the development of the times and the emergence of new industries, today's children's illustrations are not only exclusive to children, but also some trendy young people are chasing the expression of this childlike personality. In China, children's illustrations have been widely used in modern design, including print and electronic media, commodity packaging, corporate advertisements and even clothing, diaries and New Year cards. In modern design, many well-known classic works incorporate the elements of children's illustrations. Designers accurately grasp the profound connotation of these children's illustration elements, combine them perfectly with modern design elements and give them new vitality. For example, Mickey Mouse, HALLOKITTY, Pleasant Goat, Big Big Wolf and other characters in the illustrations have all become the classics used in the design. Generally speaking, the application of children's illustration in modern design is mainly reflected in three aspects: book binding design, product design and print advertising design. First, the information of children's illustrations in book binding design. Nowadays, high-tech products such as records and CDs are impacting people's horizons. As one of the important traditional media for transmitting information and acquiring knowledge, books are facing great challenges. But at the same time, with its unique packaging and rich scholarly temperament, it is still loved by people, making it occupy an irreplaceable position in other modes of communication. Therefore, in recent years, the publishing of books has higher and higher requirements for binding. How to please readers' vision and psychology, relieve the pressure, make readers get a higher level of spiritual enjoyment while accepting knowledge and information, and let readers experience the realm of freedom is a difficult problem in modern book binding design. Modern book binding design, as a systematic project, aims to create a communicator with both form and spirit and rich expressions to communicate with readers, which can never be realized only by the change of words. Only by rationally and emotionally grasping the four elements of words, images, colors and materials, and grasping the organic combination of form and spirit, pictures and words, can books truly have artistic charm beyond content. As one of the symbols of book information dissemination, children's illustration is bearing this role, and a good picture and text can be worth a thousand words. The application of children's illustrations in books is an intuitive explanation of the ideological connotation to be expressed in the contents of books by using graphics, which belongs to the visual art form. As an important part of modern design, it vividly and clearly presents an intuitive artistic image to the viewer. It plays the role of emphasizing, supplementing and explaining in the book. At the same time, with the strong visual impact of children's illustrations, readers' interest in books is aroused. In the trend of book binding design, children's illustrations with distinctive personality have become the main body of book visual expression. In order to arouse people's interest in the content, children's illustrators give the audience a brand-new visual experience with profound meanings and artistic forms. Children's illustrations with individual style are spiritual and have good cultural communication function, which directly reflects the creator's attention and cognition to the appreciator. Children's illustrations have many ways of expression in modern book binding. Books in the form of "Illustration Collection" have attracted many readers with their strong visual impact, exquisite packaging and rich illustrations, and have a good market performance. At present, the illustrations of books on the market also have their own characteristics, and some are illustrations to supplement and enrich the content; Some examples are given to highlight the author's personality; Some pictures and texts attract readers' attention visually; Some of them are illustrated in order to achieve perfect unity with technical data, and so on. However, it is difficult to apply children's illustrations to books. Children's illustrations in books must be based on the artist's understanding of the original, and the theme connotation of the original can be reproduced intuitively by using personalized expression. Therefore, illustrators should not only give full play to their creativity and drawing power, but also fully grasp the expression of the theme information in the original work. Such as historical era, regional characteristics, customs and costumes, religious beliefs, architectural environment, etc. The application of children's illustrations in books should not only catch people's eyes with its bright colors, vivid images and interest, but also help to reflect the contents of books through the shaping of its own image, and also show a certain personality theme, so that its essence can be deeply presented through different forms of children's illustrations. Second, children's illustrations in product design Nowadays, urbanites are under great pressure in work and life. Although they have already entered the adult society, they subconsciously want to be doubly concerned and cared for in an attempt to escape the responsibility of society and adults. Their cultural values began to change. They break the traditional rules and standards, and even run counter to them, showing their thinking concept of pursuing children's characteristics, which is extremely inconsistent with their actual age. Because of this, the considerate fashion trend will certainly seize this trend to provide young and even childlike consumption for this group of people, so as to relieve their social pressure as adults. As a new trend and new cultural concept, children's illustrations with lovely style will definitely have an impact on product design style. Designers applied the elements of children's illustrations to the design process, and created "children's illustrations" products that were welcomed by countless audiences. Simple and lovely shapes and cheerful colors are the main features of "children's illustration" products. For example, Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf stationery, HALLOKITTY clothing, cartoon household items and so on. These children's illustration products fully embody the lively, lovely and happy style of the times. And these styles are exactly the needs of many people who are eager to keep their innocent and beautiful childhood in today's society, even if their age is far away from childhood. For another example, in 200 1 year, several Hong Kong creative people founded the Hong Kong brand pet@work with the theme of "love pets". Combining the aesthetic elements in the eyes of designers and the attitude of pursuing quality of life, they integrated the sincere and lovely KamKam cats and DonDon dogs in children's illustrations into product design, creating a sense of the times, so that their products can meet both functional needs and urban life under pressure. Third, children's illustrations in print advertisements For print advertisements, creativity is the soul. As a senior advertising company president said, "Creativity is the skill and ability to convey a single idea in a novel and unique way. This skill and ability is called objective thinking, and then genius expression." In today's fierce brand competition, how to stand out from the similar products of many brands and make them stand out, and unique creative performance is a good way to solve this problem. It is necessary to create a unique way of expression, choose an unusual perspective, and use unique means and skills to discover and interpret the depicted print advertising products and brands. Children's illustrations exaggerate people, animals, plants or things with anthropomorphic methods, which are vivid, lovely, distinctive and full of spiritual characteristics. Because of its lively personality and strong affinity, it is especially favored by consumers as one of the forms of print advertising. It activates the rational procedure in the process of commodity circulation and better meets the requirements of novelty, uniqueness, strangeness and originality of advertising. Bella Barrage believes that "because visual communication is direct, it must be connected with people's hearts at a deeper and more vivid experience level than language." According to the survey, if there are children and other types of illustrations in print advertisements, people who read illustrations and instructions are twice as likely as those who read words. Moreover, when reading, people are always attracted by colorful pictures and then turn to words. People's attention to graphics and characters is 78% and 22% respectively. It can be seen that children and other types of pictures are much more stimulating to the vision than words. Children's illustrations can catch the audience's attention in an instant, and vivid images, bright colors and interesting symbols have all become eye-catching factors. However, there has been a misunderstanding for a long time that print advertising design is to draw advertising pictures, confusing the design of children's advertising illustrations with the general art of children's painting. When evaluating an advertising work, we often copy the evaluation criteria of painting works. This is a very wrong tendency. Therefore, it is very important to apply children's illustrations to print advertisements, determine the artistic boundary between simple children's illustrations and advertising illustrations, investigate their structures and functions in their respective value systems, obtain the design characteristics of advertising illustrations, and understand the unique aesthetic value of advertising illustrations. With the development of the times, children's illustrations have found a broader space from their mother books, and have been widely used in modern design, which has played an important role in promoting material and spiritual civilization. Nowadays, children's illustration art has penetrated into every corner of our lives in various styles, and this trend is inevitable and reversible. Its development is based on strong social needs. The industrialization road of children's illustration art will be broader. Today, with the rapid development of new technology, with the unremitting pursuit of children's illustrators, the age value of children's illustration art will be broader.
