Comment:

 This ultimately needs to be found here (I'll try to get back to completing
 the HIG soon):
 http://wiki.laptop.org/go/OLPC_Human_Interface_Guidelines/The_Sugar_Interface/Controls#Custom_Controls

 It's not there yet, but the overall design for Sugar points in the correct
 direction here.  The toolbar has been designed specifically so that every
 essential button is 75px square, and also adjacent to the edge of the
 screen for easy targeting. The toolbox system should be used wherever
 possible.  All other clickable components (menu items, combobox options,
 radio buttons, checkboxes, etc) have a minimum height of 45px, and 45px is
 the recommended "smallest size" for a clickable region.

 Please note that this doesn't mean the icon itself will be 45px -- only
 the region which contains it (and is clickable), just as toolbar icons are
 actually 55px.

 The font sizes are also spec'd in the HIG:
