Mangu and Ma

Photography for newborns

Mangu and Ma is a beautiful board book for your newborn. From 0-2 years black white and red imagery can help your baby to focus and improve their concentration.
This is a collection of beautiful images for your newborn to see. There is a collection of New Zealand icons, as well as toys, musical instruments and other objects your baby will love, all shot by Megan Bowers.

Mangu and Ma books have holes in them, so you can use your baby links to hang them on your babies gym or cot, or strap them in front of their carseat or capsule.

A newborn less than three months old can see black and white images clearer than anything else. Hold a page open at about 30cm from your babies face for about 10 seconds for them to focus, then slowly move the book from left to right while bub's eyes follow.

Available for $20.50 including postage nationwide
