Talented Newborns are able to do many things. Even in these early days, they are learning about what happens around them. Newborns can see shortly after birth. They see best when objects are about 8 inches away from the face. They enjoy looking at adults.
Newborns can see black and white and bright colors, like red and yellow.
Newborns can hear. They react to sounds by blinking their eyes, waking from sleep, crying, or moving their whole body. They like hearing a human voice and will move in rhythm to talking or singing. Newborns can taste and smell also. They like warm objects better than cold ones.
