  1. Thanks for the physical activites tips. I'm pretty sure my daughter could use a LOT more activity!
  2. Well, I have been reading and reading, and I think that we will skip the testing and just work at being aware and understanding. I find myself intently watching now to see how my daughter perceives and reacts to everything. Seems like there is something everyday that makes me say to myself, "Hmmm, what is going on in that little mind of hers." Thank you all so much for your in put!
  3. Can someone tell me how to find the post I started? I want to look back at the replies again, but can't see to figure out where it is. Thanks
  4. Well, I read those last night as well. Maybe I just don't know what else I'm looking for. Maybe someone to tell me, "yes tour child is gifted, here's what to do" or "nope, she just strong-willed and creative and sensitive". I'm willing to read again and read more though.
  5. Thanks. I actually read that list last night. I think she fits about 14-16 out of those 25 characterisitcs. I just read a quick summary of SPD and that does not describe my daughter in any way.
  6. Someone recently told me that I should read about OE in gifted kids after I described a few things about my 5yr old daughter. I have read several articles about this, but I'm still confused as to how I know for sure she is gifted or whether she's just extra sensitive. She does fit several of the 5 areas (but not the intellectual one, mostly physical and emotional). I don't want to jump to conclusions, but I don't want to miss anything that would help me understand her better. Can anyone suggest some resources that can help me? Or just some real definitive been-there-had-that-experience advice?
