A Roundtable Discussion

 Led by Lauren Callaway, Director of Sprout Gifted

Characteristics of Gifted Children:  

What You Should Know!

CGCC Free Parenting Gifted Seminar 

Parenting gifted children can be a lonely undertaking.  You are always on your guard, so you do not offend parents of typically developing children, and yet you have questions and concerns about your kids that you would like to share.  Furthermore, there are idiosyncrasies that gifted children share, such as sensitivities, perfectionism, lack of challenge, that take special parenting skills.  Come hear about common characteristics of gifted children and participate in our roundtable discussion!  

Lauren Callaway is the owner/director of Sprout - Enrichment for the Gifted Child, an after school and summer program focusing on socialization and enrichment of Chicago's gifted children.  She also does teacher in-service lectures on identification and differentiation, and advocacy for parents in the school system.  In the past, Lauren taught 3rd grade at a private school in Lincoln Park and for National Louis University's Center for Gifted.  Mother of two girls, one of whom is gifted (the other one just turned 3 - we'll see about her), life is a constant adventure.

We hope you can join us!
