Art Cards for Baby, Durable High Contrast Black and White Animal Flashcards for Newborns, Brain Development,Tummy Time Essentials for Infant and Toddler - Black and White Animals

I had heard that young babies are fascinated by black-and-white patterns, but it wasn't until we received a box of these art cards (Jungle Collection) as a gift that I realized just how strong that fascination is! Our three-month old daughter stared and stared at each card. If a card was moved in front of her face, she would enthusiastically follow it with her eyes and head. I had never seen her so interested in any other objects. Now, at 4 1/2 months, her eyesight is quite a lot better and so her visual tastes are broader. I'd guess that these cards would be most appropriate for babies between one and four months old. The great thing about these large, sturdy cards (as opposed to images in a picture book, or images printed from a home printer) is that they can be easily propped up wherever baby is playing. They make diaper-changing time and tummy time much more fun. I used them a lot on car trips: I would sit in the back seat with the baby and put the cards in front of her car seat, one at a time. Several other reviewers have complained that there are only six cards per box and that the cards are not laminated, which is less than one might expect for the $12 price tag. To that, I would reply that the six cards are really like 12 cards, because each one is double-sided (with one side showing the artwork in black on a white background and the other side showing it in white on a black background). Our baby was equally interested in each side. Although the cards are not waterproof per se, they're very sturdy and have a glossy finish, so if they come into contact with something messy, they will be fine as long as they're wiped promptly. In summary, my baby and I would recommend these whimsical, versatile, fascinating cards to any parent of a newborn. I am planning to buy them as gifts for several new babies I know!

My baby really enjoys these cards. The colors and patterns really get his attention. He is currently 12 weeks and has spent time looking at them since he was 7 weeks without getting bored; however, there is a lot of interaction to keep his attention. We usually use them at tummy time or I hold them about 8-10 inches above his face to while he is laying in his crib or at his activity gym. Depending on his mood, he favors certain pictures more than others, but he always makes faces, smiles, and coos at the pictures. The cards are also very well made and durable. I can tell they will hold up through all the drool and being handled by tiny hands. They are also larger than I expected--I attached a photo to show size relative to a small board book (which may have been listed, I just wasn't paying attention). I debated giving 4 stars because, for the price, I wish there were a few more cards. I wish I could have give a 4.5... but that rounds up, so I went with 5! I also chose to go with 5 stars because I would recommend these to others and would buy it again!

I love how thick these cards are, and the artwork is fantastic (so much better than generic "clip art" like drawings). These captured the attention of our almost 3 week old.

We purchased a few items from Wee gallery, including these art card sets! They are the perfect size for visual stimulation and interaction with our baby. My son sustains more engagement with these cards than his newborn toys. It makes me feel confident that he is learning and processing what he’s gazing at. Love the contemporary artwork and the cards aren’t flimsy at all! They’re sturdy enough for us to hold or stand against the wall of his crib. I would’ve absolutely loved these as newborn baby gifts!

The cards are sturdy and my baby learned to hold things and entertain herself while I napped next to her. The card holder smells like chemicals, so despite the organic label I wouldn’t get it/ had a residue too. But the cards are GREAT!!

This product is very cute and my baby loves it. Young babies enjoy high contrast images and these are wonderful. The cards are very sturdy and can be propped up or hung. We have them around my son's changing table. He is transfixed by the cards and have turned diaper changing into a fun activity ("What does the snake say? Hisssss") instead of his usual squalling. A few things to note, though. (1) The Jungle Collection includes a Bear. This is not my interpretation of the drawing. The card clearly reads "Bear." I tend to think of bears belonging in the woods, not the jungle. (2) I think these cards are geared towards babies less than 6 months old. If I remember correctly, after this time they become more interested in colors. (3) There is no way to hang the cards. We've propped them up around his changing table, but I think you can purchase a mobile extension (if you so desire). (4) My baby (10 weeks) hasn't started grabbing objects to put in his mouth. So, I don't know if these cards would stand up to that sort of abuse. All that being said, we love these cards and they hold our baby's attention. Also, they're nice looking and have been a wonderful addition to our nursery!

We had two sets of these cards. Definitely the best baby play items for us. Our baby is now 19 months and she interacted with them at the very beginning and for so, so long! You could tell the difference at 1 month old when we were first interacting with these, she would be very focused on the images because she could simply see them as it is black and white. Plus they are very long lasting and the size of the cards is perfect. They are still in a very great shape to pass along to our future baby! We definitely recommend them.

Bellissime cards, le ho usate quando mio figlio era appena nato, le osservava spesso. Ora che ha 8 mesi vorrei provare a riproporgliele inventando una storia perchè sono fatte veramente benissimo.

Love these cards, my 2 month old who can't yet grab toys loves staring at these. Nice qualit. Will definately buy more wee gallery products!

Les cartes sont très jolies et les enfants les adorent ! Les cartes sont résistantes (attention quand même à ce qu'ils ne les mangent pas... Ca reste une sorte de carton solide)

Great little cards. Wonderful illustrations and my baby is interested in looking at the. As he gets a bit older I think his interest will grow. Lovely as a gift too. Very well packaged and sturdy cards.

Diseños bonitos, contrastantes, impresos en tarjetas de buen tamaño, excelente calidad.
