Why choose *black and white toys for newborns*? This is a question many parents ask when choosing toys for their newborns. Let’s join DailySavingz in answering the above questions as well as learning about black and white toy sets for babies below:
Why do newborns like black and white objects?
When babies are newly born, their eyesight is only within a range of 20-38cm. They can see all the basic colors. However, the distinction between similar colors like red and orange seems unclear. That’s why babies tend to be more interested in black and white checkered stripes, or contrasting colors.
Babies also see the lines where black and white meet more clearly than other colors, due to the higher contrast. Perhaps that’s why this black and white toy set helps babies look longer, focus more, increase concentration, and stimulate their visual development.
DailySavingz recommends that parents choose black and white objects, clothes, and wallpaper to prepare in the room of a baby about to be born, both to decorate the room beautifully and to have the added benefit of developing the baby’s brain. In addition, around the crib of a newborn from 0-3 months old, there should be pictures of famous world landscapes. You must pay attention to surrounding the baby in a rich environment. On shelves and bookshelves, display brightly colored toys or colored wooden blocks (tsumiki), for example.
With newborns under one month old, let them look at black and white checkered images for 3 minutes each day, continuously for a week. The baby’s ability to focus, from less than 5 seconds, will increase to 60-90 seconds. A high degree of concentration will be well related to learning many things later. The ability to concentrate is the foundation of the ability to learn.

Review of the Glenn Doman black and white toy set for newborns
Features
The Glenn Doman black and white toy set for newborns stimulates vision and is made of durable paper combined with sharp print colors that will maximally support the baby’s learning process. Parents can stick it on the wall or on cardboard to hold for the baby to learn.
The black and white Flash Card set stimulates the senses of newborns with 58 cards with different but very familiar shapes to help your baby be more interested in the learning process.
58 picture cards are evenly divided into many different themes, from familiar images of feet, hands, eyes, mouth,… to not-so-unfamiliar household items: scissors, cups, spoons,… or pets in the house: cats, fish, dogs,… so that babies can easily get acquainted and memorize. Moreover, the product set also includes 10 picture cards with small dots corresponding to the numbers from 1 to 10. Parents can teach their babies to count every day.
Instructions
+ Teach regularly every day, view 3 or more times a day, shuffle the cards each time, and allow at least 30 minutes between each viewing.
+ The cards are all relatively large and can be stuck on the wall and in places where the baby exercises to stimulate their attention and encourage movement.
+ Hold the baby or let them sit in a comfortable position. The distance from the baby’s eyes to the card is about 30cm. While looking at the picture, read the name of the object in the picture aloud (stimulating both sight and hearing), let the baby look for 20 seconds, then switch to another picture.
In addition to the black and white toy set for newborns like the Glenn Doman visual stimulation set, parents can make their own handmade black and white toys for newborns using cotton fabric hanging on the crib… freely creating according to their imagination.
