Abstract
"Eyes for Art" is an accordion-style art book for newborns and toddlers (ages 0-2). The art book encourages creativity, supports visual development, and promotes parental bonding. Inspired by the Reggio Emilia philosophy, these books feature museum artworks from high-contrast black-and-white images that gradually transition to colorful masterpieces. "Eyes for Art" provides a screen-free, art-focused alternative for early childhood education by utilizing public-domain artworks from worldwide museums. This proposal outlines the market position and crowdfunding strategy to inspire a lifelong appreciation for art and creativity.
