My sister has a three-month-old little girl, and her development is fascinating to me. The way she reacts to things, the way she smiles when she sleeps, what she looks at, all these things make me wonder: how do babies see the world? I have no memories from my infancy, and I don’t know anyone else who does, either.

So, does anyone have any information of scientific studies relating to perception of infants? This includes things like what they see, what they do and do not understand, and what they dream about. I would love to learn more about what’s going on in my baby niece’s head!
