Appropriately enough, the face is the most interesting thing to your baby at this age (followed by high-contrast items such as a checkerboard), so be sure to allow plenty of up-close time.

That same research showed that infants enjoyed looking at images that had contrasting colours and complex images such as checker boards, bulls-eyes and slanted lines and stripes. And when an infant fixates on a pattern, there are changes in his/her brain wave activity and there is an increase in the blood flow to the areas of the brain involved in the stimulation.)
