Did you know? Babies can only see black and white in their first month of birth.




Although babies can see colors, their brains may not perceive them as clearly or vividly as older children and adults.

A baby can only see black and white with shades of gray for the first month of their birth, since their retinal nerves are not completely fostered. As the months go by, they will gradually begin to foster their variety of vision at close to 4 months. 

So it's not your imagination if you notice your child focused all over and eyes closed, especially during a care, when your face is about a foot away.

Before you tell me, I would like to test you the three sieves. - The thieves? - Yes, continued Socrates. Before telling anything about the others, it's good to take the time to filter what you mean. I call it the test of the three sieves. The first sieve is the TRUTH. Have you checked if what you're going to tell me is true? - No, I just heard it. - Very good! So, you don't know if it's true. We continue with the second sieve, that of KINDNESS. What you want to tell me about my friend's end, is it good? - Oh, no! On the contrary. - So, questioned Socrates, you want to tell me bad things about him and you're not even sure they're true? Maybe you can still pass the test of the third sieve, that of UTILITY.
