Baby Sees® 

Much loved by parents and babies 

alike, the award-winning and 

bestselling Baby Sees series has 

been described as “brilliant and 

unique”. Stunning black-and-white 

and high-contrast colour images 

captivate babies and help the 

visual part of their brain to develop. 

Age 0+ 

What can babies see? 

“Newborn infants only respond to big, bright visual objects. Colour vision 

and depth perception take months to mature. If the newborn human 

brain is not equipped to see well, the implication is that newborns will 

not be sensitive to blur and will not focus their eyes clearly on an object. 

This results in a blurred image forming on the retina … and only blurred 

signals being sent to the baby’s developing visual system.” 

Professor Rowan Candy, Indiana University School of Optometry
