Competitions for Talented Kids

Competitions for Talented Kids is a straightforward listing of more than 140 competitions in academics, fine and performing arts, leadership, and service learning. Each listing is 1–2 pages in length and includes details such as address, website, and contact information for the contest; a brief description; which children are eligible; how to enter; judging criteria; winner notifications; awards; general advice; and more. A small part of Competitions for Talented Kids is consumable, inviting kids to write down goals for a competition, lists of things they need, and more. A supplementary list of helpful resources rounds out this practical and useful reference guide for helping kids get involved in honing their talents and becoming the best they can be.
