One of the big secrets of finding time is not to watch television.

A child needs to be listened to and talked to at 3 and 4 and 5 years of age. Parents should not wait for the sophisticated conversation of a teenager.

The children should never be excluded from what I am doing and should never have the feeling of being part of an audience.

Let me introduce myself. My name is, uh, Kangaroo... Kangaroo - Captain Kangaroo ... I'm the keeper here of the Treasure House.

Every word, movement and action has an effect. No other person or outside force has a greater influence on a child than the parent.

Play is the work of children. It's very serious stuff.

Children don't drop out of high school when they are 16, they do so in the first grade and wait 10 years to make it official.
