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

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

👉 It's a fact: Newborns love bright, high-contrast colors. At first, they barely notice pastel shades; they seem more like "white." Babies can only distinguish primary colors after 2–3 months. Before that, the rule is: the more colorful and contrasting, the more exciting!

Red is number 1

Babies' favorite color is red from birth —no wonder, since they're surrounded by reddish tones for months in the womb. Red feels familiar and safe. That's why many midwives recommend putting a red cloth in your hospital bag.

Contrasting patterns are the eye-catcher

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

Colour 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. Learn more about your baby's developmental stages here.
