Do you know any websites which detail artistic milestones/giftedness in children?

Posted by admin on December 14th, 2009 and filed under preschool websites | 3 Comments »

I am particualry interested in preschool age artistic development and how to nurture it. Thanks

Like Hoagies Gifted that’s been mentioned, I would check out Deborah Ruf’s "levels of giftedness" (linked from Hoagies):

http://www.educationaloptions.com/levels_giftedness.htm

I would find books on prodigious ability and read up.

Also, GT-Cybersource has some GREAT information:

When your child is 5, s/he may be eligible for admission to the Davidson Young Scholars program. My son is a YS and it’s a wonderful thing – and FREE! They serve children until they’re 18.
