Teaching Your Kids About Typography

What a great way to start your little ones on the basics of typography! Norwegian design house Studio 3 has created an activity book titled Hyperactivitypography which aims to teach children the ins-and-outs of typography through cute illustrations, games, and tons of useful facts…

…even the evils of using Comic Sans!

Unfortunately, the book is currently out of stock but fret not — you can view the entire thing online at http://www.hyperactivitypography.com/

Via Neatorama.

P.S. — Did anyone else find it hilarious that Dan Gilbert’s open letter to Cavs fans got as much press for its use of Comic Sans as it did for its content?

    What a cute book! I’m no graphic designer, or even web designer really, but every time I see Comic Sans on a webpage, I cringe.

    @Ashley — One of my friends ONLY uses Comic Sans when he talks to me online because he knows it bugs me. I honestly never liked that font. *shudder*

    My PROFESSOR uses only comic sans for all his slides. *sigh*
