Our New High Contrast Books Have Arrived!

At The Happy Start, our passion is helping little ones reach their developmental milestones while creating moments of joy and discovery for the entire family. That's why we're thrilled to introduce two brand-new additions to our collection! These books are specifically designed to captivate your baby's attention, support their visual and cognitive growth, and offer you another wonderful way to connect and interact.

Say hello to our High Contrast Board Book 3-Pack and our High Contrast Soft Book.

Why High Contrast?

Before we dive into the details, let's talk about why high contrast is so beneficial for newborns and young infants. In the early weeks and months, a baby's eyesight is still developing. They perceive bold, high-contrast images most easily. The distinctive contrast captures their attention, stimulates developing optic nerves, and helps build crucial visual tracking skills and focus. It's simple yet powerful developmental support, disguised as fun.

Meet the New Arrivals:

1. High Contrast Board Book 3-Pack
