What Parents Should Know
Sensitive Topics
None. The book is a straightforward visual and auditory sensory experience for infants.
Ideal Reader
The ideal reader is a newborn to 6-month-old infant. More accurately, the ideal user is a parent-infant pair. It is perfect for new parents who want a research-backed tool to support their baby's visual development and are looking for a simple, beautiful first book to share.
Parent Prep
No preparation is needed to read the book. A parent may find it helpful to know that newborns see best at a distance of 8-12 inches, so holding the book at that range from the baby's face will be most effective. They can also use it during tummy time by propping it up in front of the baby. A parent has just learned about the importance of high-contrast stimulation for newborns, perhaps from their pediatrician, a parenting blog, or a friend. They are looking for an easy and enjoyable activity to do with their baby that feels both loving and developmentally productive.
