Did you know that infants only see in shades of gray? What if I told you the most important connections in the brain are created in the very early stages of life? The High Contrast Baby Pack helps you stimulate and encourage natural development in your infant! The set correlates age/development with color combos and detail and includes recommended stages from 0-6 months. This pack features two themes: bold black and white images with red accents – designed for younger babies, and a red, yellow, teal, black and white theme with slightly busier images for older babies. Pack includes 7 double sided picture cards; one side featuring the black & white theme, while the other side features the more colorful theme. Cards measure 4.5" x 5.75" and features two holes for hanging as a garland. Pack includes two contrast books: one black and white for ages 3mo +, and one colorful for 6mo+.
