If you are of the mind that the educational process should begin immediately; a black and white baby mobile may be exactly what you need.
Parents who have done their research may decide to postpone the bold, primary colors of popular baby nursery themes for boys and girls for awhile in favor of a black and white baby nursery room and crib bedding set. Not that there is anything wrong with decorating a baby’s nursery however you want, but the facts are that infants will clearly see the bright nursery color scheme for at least two or three months.
It has been reported that newborns start to notice certain colors like green, yellow, red and orange at approximately two months of age and quickly afterwards begin to see shades of blue. But many find that babies are attracted to high contrasts of dark and light shades as in the case of a black and white crib mobile over even the most brightly colored baby mobiles. In addition they have been know to prefer patterns with curved lines which makes an excellent case for striped zebra baby bedding and baby items with a zebra print or black and white baby crib mobiles with dangling shapes cut from black and white fabrics.
