This research examines the effects of differently colored playground balls on the play behaviors of children between the ages of three and four. Color vision in human beings triggers certain physical and psychological responses that can influence behavioral changes; the goal of this observational study is to determine if these responses are strong enough to influence the type and durations of children's play. This observational study was conducted on children between the ages of 36 and 60 months old who were enrolled in a children's daycare and child development research facility. Results of this study produced trends that indicate that certain colors do have an impact on the level of activity in which children play, namely, that children exhibit a greater number of play behaviors on traditional playgrounds, but play longer on nature playgrounds. Additionally, trends suggested that red and yellow, warm colors, increase the number of active and low active play behaviors observed and blue, a cool color, increases the durations of play behaviors. This knowledge suggest that color could be a viable tool in designing play spaces to meet specific needs and promoting different play behaviors in children.
