For me, it was when my two year old daughter began saying things we know she has never heard (she was never in childcare or away from me) and actually spoke Latin (we know she had never heard any and she spoke VERY well). She is now 8 years old and has always been very intelligent and above her age level in everything. My son who is nine has also given us a few surprise clues. He is hyperactive and has dyslexia which interferes with his learning somewhat but he is also very intelligent and they both retain a great deal of information. My husband and I always dismissed the idea of reincarnation and were strict Baptist and everything we had always believed came crashing down when our children began recalling what seem to be past life memories. When I began college a year later to finish my teaching degree, I was actually told by the professor in Child Development class that recalling past lives is so common that anyone working with small children, especially before the age of 5 will hear little recollections frequently but we should ignore it and not upset the parents by telling them. Now that our children are older, we kind of miss the little stories they used to tell.
