Babies are people too. My kids have always appreciated drawings and art as soon as they can see it well enough.
It's actually really fun to enjoy it with them

Wasn’t there a post some time ago where someone saw something like this but they didn’t want to take a picture for their privacy so they drew a shitty stick figure drawing to illustrate what they saw?
It’s amazing how mature and aware even infants are when you talk to them instead of at them.
We talked to our babies like humans and it worked for their language development. Weirdly, my ex now speaks to them at 11 and 13 with baby talk. 🤷🏼♂️
I have always read the books I was reading when my kids were baby's, with my first I read Edward O Wilson's "the ants" kinda cool to see how much they like insects as a late 20 something. With my youngest it was the science of cooking and a book called "Man corn" wich lays out the evidence for canablisim in the paleo southwest. And its kinda cool to see that that child is a lot like me. (honestly I wish my child didn't end up with a lot of my issues and no I don't think reading to them influenced anything other the their vocabulary and their desire to learn)
This reminds me of a conversation I had with my son's grade school teacher. My son was (is still) school smart. As such, he was smart and a part of the "gifted program." Gifted program meant little at his school.
During parent-teacher night I spoke with his teacher. Normal stuff. Then I asked what I could do help him do better with his gifted status.
Her response was simple. Take him everywhere.
That's exactly what I did. I would find any free event and take him and my nephews. No matter what the event was they were happy.
When your baby is that small you just kind of point them at things and explain it. It is fun
