The best way that I can explain this to you is if you hold up a blue card (stimulus) to an infant, at first they may become interested. After continuous exposure to that card they become uninterested in it anymore (habituated). So in the technical terms after continuous exposure to a stimulus it is common for an infant even adults to become habituated to that stimulus.
