Baby on the way? Give your baby a head start in life by colorizing the nursery appropriately.

Color is important for babies as experts tell us that babies can see color before they can see forms and shapes. As children grow they are continually making connections between color and objects.

While the most popular colors for nurseries are gentle pastels such as mint green, sky blue, pinks and creamy yellows, psychologists say children like and thrive around the bolder and brighter primary colors.

In choosing the nursery color palette, parents might want to consider the following: (1) the parents personal color preferences; (2) selecting colors that will enhance the theme or style of the nursery; and, (3) using colors that will not agitate the child.

With all the color choices available to new parents, here's a few color tips we found to get you started:

·Babies cry more in yellow rooms
·Pink is an ideal color for colicky babies
·Red is one of the first colors babies can discern.
