Baby's favorite colors - which colors do babies love and what can a baby see?

Bad news for all fans of pastel colors: Babies prefer bright, high-contrast colors! We'll tell you why here.


Let's be honest: Who among us hasn't immediately reached for sweet pastel colors when the nesting instinct kicks in? Soft pink, sky blue, beige – we love them. But babies? They see things quite differently!

👉 Fact: Newborns love bright, high-contrast colors. They barely notice pastel shades at first; to them, they look more like "white." Babies can only distinguish primary colors after 2-3 months. Before that, the brighter and more contrasting, the more exciting!

Red is number 1

Babies' favorite color is red from birth – no wonder, since they are surrounded by reddish tones for months in the womb. Red feels familiar and safe. That's why many midwives recommend: "Put a red scarf in your hospital bag."

High-contrast patterns are the eye-catcher.

Stripes , dots , patterns , checkerboard designs – these are absolute highlights for babies. Clear contrasts magically attract their attention and simultaneously train their vision.

Colorfulness promotes development

The more colors, the better for the brain. Colorful stimuli connect the eyes and brain, promote perception, and make babies curious about the world. Here you can learn more about your baby's developmental milestones .

Babies love the color red and patterns.
