    Someone else made a comment and I think it’s great so imma plagiarize it-

    If kids are taught to read an analog clock early, which isn’t very hard to learn, they are getting a leg up on fractions, percentages, and geometry.

      I don’t actually believe this is true.

      It rather, I imagine that they could get an even greater leg up if that time was spent teaching something else
