Having a newborn is equally exciting and exhausting, but it is important that you take the time to provide your baby with experiences and activities that will aid in their development. You can find mobiles for baby’s everywhere, but when you are focusing on your newborn’s visual development it is best to use a mobile that is not only exciting and engaging for your baby, but also something they can actually see! Simply put, using black and white flashcards for babies, is the best way you can help your baby’s vision, focus and tracking to improve. From around 10-12 weeks old, your baby may be able to distinguish the colour red; so this is a great time to introduce black, white and red toys and resources, try and resist toys that are colourful and pretty at this stage; as mentioned above they won’t offer anything visually for your baby.

In addition to placing black and white images in front of your baby, you can describe what these objects are: “this is a square, this is a triangle, this is a ball. You could even have a go at making your own DIY sensory toys (Pinterest is full of great ideas for this). You can give them something productive to look at by adding these black and white picture cards to the nursery.

You can start using black and white picture cards and black and white flashcards as soon as your newborn comes home.
