You learn something new every day, and for babies, they learn a whole lot more

The internet has given us many weird and wonderful things, and now the latest is a simulation video which reveals what babies see when they’re born.

It might come as no surprise that babies constantly seem a) surprised, and b) overstimulated after watching this video.

As well as cat pics, all of the recipes you could ever want, and endless TikTok dances, the internet is pretty good as far as educational tools go, too.

WebMD (a.k.a the website you go to search every time you have a headache to find out what it is) created a video breaking down the timeline of development as far as vision goes for babies.

“Wondering how babies see the world? Infant sight develops at different rates… newborns can spot things that are right beside them with their side vision.”

“Their central vision isn’t strong yet,” the video reveals, showing a thoroughly blurry outline of their parents.

It’s not until two weeks later that babies can start to notice light and dark shapes, and also may be attracted to bright colors.

After a month, they can focus on mom or dad but not for long.

In fact, it’s not until around months five through eight that babies may start to recognise their parents by sight, as well as developing a sense of distance.

Their depth perception starts to develop between months 9 to 12.

Viewers were shocked to discover just how little newborns can actually see.

“As a former full time baby, this is true,” joked one.

Another commenter wrote: “No wonder why they’re freaking out. They just see big shadows in front of them the whole time.”

“Poor little ones, I just thought that they were fighting for attention!” wrote another.

It was a revelation for another watcher: “Interesting! No wonder my baby sister was so still as an infant. I remembered her eyes being half shut for a couple of months. Then one day, she opened them wide!”

“My kid was one month old and I used to show her birds. She never noticed. I thought she was disinterested, but then I learnt that she can’t even see them,” added one parent.

However, one argued: “Babies recognize parents wayyyyy before 5 months, from my experiences knowing people.”

“I’m sure my baby can see more than this!!” insisted one mom.

“My little one definitely recognised faces earlier,” said another, with one agreeing: “My niece at 4-5 months could recognise us easily.”

Others hit out at ‘beige’ parents who don’t want bright colors in their home for their style, but they’re important for the development of babies.

Simulation shows what cats see and hear when they look at us and it’s blown people’s minds

Have you ever wondered how cats see the world?

A video has demonstrated how cats hear and see us, and it’s left people pretty surprised.

Millions of people across the globe have some kind of pet and our furry friends are undeniably some of the best companions you can get.

Some people love their pets so much that they’d rather speak to them than other people, a study found.

Last year, it was revealed that 36 percent of the 2,000 participants who took part in the UK study said they’d rather would rather chat to their pet than other humans on some occasions, Daily Express reported.

Elsewhere, nearly half of the pet owners (43 percent) said they believe their animal understands them — and I’m inclined to agree.

While many of us have admitted to enjoying a bit of chit-chat with our four-legged friends, have you ever wondered how we sound to them?

Well, if you have then YouTuber Benn Jordan has created clever simulations to show how we appear and sound to our pets.

Dogs, for example, apparently perceive time as being about 33 percent slower than we do, therefore our movements and voices appear slower and lower to them.

When it comes to cats, however, they see in a quicker way in comparison to humans.

Jordan went on to explain: “Cats don’t see in many more colors than dogs do but the sharpness in which they see is much superior to dogs and humans.”

He added: “Nonetheless, it makes it impressive that they can always land on their feet considering that they have less time to process it.”

Basically, cats see in 100 frames per second (FPS), while most of us can see between 30 and 60 frames per second.

People have since shared their thoughts on the cat simulation and it’s safe to say that a fair few of them were surprised.

One person commented on YouTube: “Cats have super fast reflexes, so it seems like everything would be slower to them. And how they can walk seemingly quickly over a chessboard without knocking over any pieces. Surprising.”

Another said: “I’d always assumed a cat’s perception of time was slow-motion (compared to ours) and that’s why they were so good at doing dexterous stuff… and why they needed to sleep so much (lots of information to process). Interesting that I was completely wrong.”

A third cat-lover added: “You mean to tell me, my cat is making these insane ninja moves in a faster timeline than I see them? That just made me respect cats even more.”
