Then, through case analysis, the principles of the integration of emotional elements in the packaging design of children’s toiletries are discussed. Secondly, it analyzes the typical problems of lacking emotion in the packaging design of children’s bath products in the current market, such as single emotional expression, static design as the leading, insufficient information transmission, and lack of brand culture transmission. Finally, based on the existing problems, the paper puts forward some suggestions on the optimization of packaging design, such as deepening emotional expression, enhancing interactive design, strengthening information transmission and deepening brand culture.
