According to Maria Montessori “Mobiles are an aid to the visual sense. Babies of only 2-3 days have been observed in concentration of 20-25 minutes watching the black and white images of the Munari mobile.”

Developed by Bruno Munari (1907-1998), the Munari mobile provides newborns a great opportunity to exercise their mind. The transparent ball that reflects light, plus the black and white contrasts are suitable for baby’s developing focus, tracking, and visual sense.

The mobile is based on the intrinsic sense of order and mathematics embedded in humans. Maria Montessori called this “the mathematical mind. The perception of balance and geometry remain with the child and becomes a part of the baby through the “absorbent mind”.

This mobile is introduced during the first 3-6 weeks of the baby’s life.
It needs to be hung about 12-14 inches, baby’s level of vision.

Change the mobile once you see your baby is not interested in it anymore.
