• Even before I started going to movies, I loved the idea of them. When I started learning to read as a kid, I started reading the movie pages in the paper and I could tell you what was showing at every theater within a ten mile radius of our house.

• Learning to read and write makes little sense if you don't understand what you're reading and writing about. While we may have forgotten, most of our early learning came not from being explicitly taught but from experiencing. Kids aren't born knowing hard and soft, sweet and sour, red and green. When the child experiences those things, s/he transforms them into psychological understandings. When kids play with other kids, they learn about others and about themselves. Learning the basics of our physical and social reality is what early childhood is all about.

• Mi hijo tiene siete años y está aprendiendo a leer y a conjugar, pero no estoy de acuerdo con ese tipo de educación porque siento que los conceptos no están contextualizados... es interesante intentar que mi hijo sea un niño reflexivo, en lugar de un niño repetitivo, aunque no esté de acuerdo conmigo.

• I studied piano from the age of three. My grandmother taught piano. I stayed at her house during the day while my parents worked. I obviously wanted to learn to play. And so she asked if she could teach me, and my mother said don't you think she's too young. My grandmother apparently said no. So I could read music before I could read, and I really don't remember learning to read music. So for me it's like a native language. When I look at a sheet of music, it just makes sense.

• Experts generally agree that taking all opportunities to read books and other material aloud to children is the best preparation for their learning to read.
