Newborns can see from birth, just not as clearly as older children or adults. According to research by, J. P. Kelly, A. H. Weiss and D. Y. Teller (Division of Ophthalmology, Children’s Hospital, Seattle, WA, USA), Until your child is about six months of age, he will respond best to bold, contrasting colors and graphics. That’s why it’s important to provide your baby with toys that feature the visual extremes of black, white and red.
