Black and white flashcards for baby
Baby will be absolutely captivated with these 20 double-sided black-and-white flashcards, designed specifically for newborn babies to help with distraction, visual development and stimulation. Young babies require visual stimulation in order to encourage the connection of brain pathways. These simple, bold designs are perfect in the first 0-12 weeks when baby can only see 8-12 inches from their face and have not yet acquired the ability to focus on small detail or colour variations. Use them as flashcards or as wall art in baby’s room; baby will love to look at them while being changed. Cards measure 15x15cm.
Is your baby crying a lot and hard to distract? Here’s how visual stimulation can help:
Babies, especially from about 6 weeks onward, start becoming more visually curious. When they’re not crying from hunger or pain, distraction techniques can be surprisingly effective.
Visual distractions that may soothe a crying baby:
Mobiles or ceiling fans (slow movement is calming)
High-contrast images (especially black and white in early weeks)
Mirrors (babies often enjoy looking at faces)
Shiny or reflective objects
Sensory books or textured pages
