Did you know that babies love looking at black and white?
Black and white images with sharp outlines are much easier for baby to see in the first few months of life when it is hard for them to focus, and hard for them to see shades of colour. Mesmerised black and white book for babies will not only keep your baby stimulated & engaged, but will also help to nurture visual development from the day they are born, making it one of the best baby books for supporting early visual development.
Here’s why Mesmerised is the MUST-HAVE book for your baby:
• Designed to attract baby’s attention and stimulate visual development
• Can be used from the day of birth
• Teaches baby to focus and track
• Great distraction for tummy time, floor time, change time
• Visual stimulation at this early age assists with the creation of brain pathways (see Why Black and White for more info)

Babies must learn to ‘see’ in the same way they have to learn to walk and talk. The images in our books have been designed in a very simple, bold style to make them as easy as possible for newborn babies to see, and to kickstart that process of connecting the eyes to the brain. Unlike other black and white baby books on the market, Mesmerised images have no unnecessary detail, colour or line work. Your baby will learn to focus over time by studying the images in our black and white books.
Babies will be absolutely mesmerised by the black and white images in this gorgeous book – from a ladybug and its spots, to a snail crawling up the side of the page. Great for propping open on the playmat beside baby and also for encouraging ‘tummy time’.
Mesmerised is currently being used in the Special Care nurseries of Westmead Childrens’ Hospital and Royal Hobart Hospital, as the book of choice for newborn babies.
Printed with baby-safe vegetable inks, & using paper sourced from sustainably-managed forests.

If your baby favours one side of the head or has a flat spot on one side, Mesmerised products can also be used to encourage your baby to turn both sides of its head; prop the book open to the non-favoured side and the attraction of the black and white images will keep your baby engaged long enough to exercise the muscles on the weaker side.
