"My son started using the computer at age three, and now at eight he's as comfortable navigating around the keyboard as he is turning the pages of a book. He's made PowerPoint presentations and slide shows. He can insert sound clips into documents and design intricate graphs and line drawings right on the computer."
--Aliki McElreath, Professor Mom
