Babies' vision develops rapidly in the first year of life. Parents and caretakers play a vital role in nurturing this growth through simple and engaging activities. A couple of fun ways to help: Move objects in front of them to help them track movement and strengthen eye muscles. Play peek-a-boo! This isn’t only to make them laugh (even though that already makes it worth doing); it’s a great way of giving them practice focusing their eyes. Mirror Play - let baby look in a baby-safe mirror to encourage visual exploration and self-awareness. These playful moments aren’t just fun—they’re foundational. By engaging your baby visually, you’re helping lay the groundwork for future learning, coordination, and social development.
