About The Author  
Carol Fertig

Carol Fertig

I have been active in the education community for more than 40 years and involved in gifted education for more than 20 years. At various times, I have been a classroom teacher, gifted education teacher, consultant, writer, editor—you name it. I live in Colorado, but also spend a fair amount of time in Chicago. I have two grown boys: one in Colorado and one in California. In my spare time, I enjoy skiing, mountain biking, and golfing. I also like to read, go to plays, and watch foreign movies. Feel free to send me an e-mail.

I am also the author of Raising a Gifted Child: A Parenting Success Handbook. This book offers a large menu of strategies, resources, organizations, tips, and suggestions for parents to find optimal learning opportunities for their gifted kids, covering the gamut of talent areas, including academics, the arts, technology, creativity, music, and thinking skills.

Mensa for Kids

Friday, April 13, 2007 - by CFertig - Category: Parents and Educators
          
 
Mensa, the high IQ organization, has launched a Web site for kids, geared toward children ages 6-10. The site provides numerous interactive educational games and puzzles that are frequently updated. There is also a monthly feature written by Mensa members on a wide variety of topics. The feature this month includes a series of physics experiments that kids can do at home. Be careful, though, because one of the experiments requires the use of a diamond. (Hang on to those rings.)
 
Mensa for Kids also provides lots of information and resources for parents and teachers, including articles, booklists, and Internet resources.
 
The site is colorful and easy to navigate. It is one more worthwhile resource you will want to bookmark.
