Our Top 5 Black and White books for Babies:
Newborn babies love black and white and a back and white book will help stimulate your baby’s developing sense of sight. At birth a babies sight has a visual limit of about 22cm. It isn’t certain if they can distinguish colour but it is known that they are drawn to high contrast images. The images in the following baby books are simple and striking so that they catch the babies attention.
The baby shapes books were a favourite with our children from birth. As stated by the publisher, ‘Baby Shapes one and two, use very simple (through to more complex) bold graphic shapes. Baby Shapes three consists of a range of faces and facial expressions. New babies may copy some of the expressions. Baby Shapes four develops the graphics theme, introducing simple everyday objects such as a cat and a dog. The books bring the parents and their new baby together in a shared visual experience, nurturing the important beginnings of reading and turning the pages of a book’.
