Looking for idiom or phrase similar to "for dummies"
I like your second proposal, I met it quite often among non-native speakers (e.g. "Let me break it down for you"). It would be nice to have more examples of use in narrative sentence, a link or reference is fine.

@Barque, I need it for use in the context of explanation to students of any kind. For example, when teaching a course in university one may need to refresh student's knowledge from a previous course, which some of them forgot or did not even attend. And such a "refreshment" expected to be short and clear, possibly with references to more detailed explanation, but without deviation from the main course.

Difference between "think of" and "think about"
I guess this answer summarizes all the explanations with nice and clear examples, thank you.

@Irene, it is rather difficult to see the difference from examples. There is another relevant question english.stackexchange.com/questions/32838/… but I was not sure if the verb does matter.
