Expanding Accessibility: Our High Contrast Products Now Available in 8 Languages

At The Happy Start, we're passionate about creating affordable, accessible, and accommodating products that help little ones thrive in their earliest stages of development. Today, we’re excited to share a major milestone: our best-selling high contrast self-standing board book and high contrast vision cards are now available in six additional languages, bringing our total offerings to eight languages.

A Global Mission of Accessibility

From day one, our goal has been to provide parents, caregivers, and educators with high-quality tools that support early visual and cognitive development. High contrast imagery is particularly beneficial for newborns and young infants, as it captures their attention and stimulates brain development during their critical first months. Now, by offering our products in eight languages, we’re making it easier for families around the world to share these developmental benefits in their native tongues.

The Languages We Now Support

In addition to English and Spanish, The Happy Start's high contrast self-standing board book and vision cards are now available in the following languages:

  • Arabic
  • Chinese (Mandarin)
  • French
  • Portuguese
  • Russian
  • Vietnamese

This expansion was driven by our commitment to inclusivity. We recognize that language is a crucial part of connecting with babies and fostering early learning. By providing these products in multiple languages, we hope to support even more families across different cultures and communities.

Why High Contrast Products Matter

Research shows that high contrast images are easier for babies to see and can help improve focus, attention span, and visual tracking skills. Our products—developed with the help of leading NICU departments at top children's hospitals—are designed to meet the unique needs of babies in their earliest stages of visual development.

High Contrast Self-Standing Board Book

Our board book is a versatile tool that grows with your baby. Featuring a self-standing design, it’s perfect for tummy time or on-the-go learning. Each page is filled with bold, black-and-white images that captivate your baby’s attention.

Bridging Cultures Through Early Learning

At The Happy Start, we believe that learning starts with connection—and language plays a vital role in that. By expanding our language offerings, we aim to bridge cultures and bring families closer together through the shared experience of supporting their child’s early development.

Whether you’re teaching your baby their first words in Arabic, introducing them to Chinese characters, or sharing stories in French, our high contrast products make these moments more engaging and meaningful.

  • Affordability: All of our products are priced under $10, ensuring that every family has access to quality early learning tools.
