Newborns are supposed to respond more strongly to high-contrast patterns and shapes because they can't see tonal subtleties. So what does this playset look like to Trixie? It's probably not as stark as this black and white photograph, but that's the best way to emphasize its value-based patterns. Since she's a nice solid mid-tone gray, Trixie can be little hard to see in this explosion of poka dots and stripes; roll over the image with your mouse to see it in normal color.
