Looking forward to seeing everyone!

Designing User Experiences for Children

Mediabarn’s Director of Usability Research, Heather Nam, just published an article on UXmatters, an online magazine providing insights and inspiration for the user experience community. The article, called “Designing User Experiences for Children,” addresses potential pitfalls web designers can encounter when creating a user experience for children, suggests following design conventions that would be applicable for any user whether adult or child, and details specific findings from four recent web site usability studies conducted in the Mediabarn UX Lab with 85 children ages 3 to 9 years old.
