Best Answer

The entire Tanakh (Hebrew Bible), not just Proverbs, was taught to children from the age of five and up. It was commonplace for ten-year-olds to know the entire Tanakh by heart - with commentary and cantillation.

In particular, Proverbs has very many layers of meaning which imparted life-wisdom and Torah-attitudes.
