Visual development in newborns can be stimulated with high-contrast patterns

What Baby Sees

The Tutortogs concept is based on our personal experiences and on the findings of HealthyChildren.org, “…the only parenting Website backed by 60,000 pediatricians committed to the attainment of optimal physical, mental, and social health and well-being for all infants, children, adolescents, and young adults.”

Given their early visual abilities, babies prefer high-contrast edges and patterns (black and white) and later become aware of colors (e.g. red and yellow). As the eyes, brain and body develop, the ability to perceive different shades, track movement, and discern small objects develops. By age one, depth perception is complete, and by age two, so is normal visual acuity. A healthy child’s total optic infrastructure is fully mature by age three.
