What remains to be wished for?
Dear Reader
This August it has been possible to have three new articles from the German manual translated into English.
All three deal with the idea of “Integrative Focus Kindergartens for the Advancement of Gifted Children” and their implementation. In Germany the IHVO has so far certified 11 such Kindergartens. The teams of these kindergartens have been thoroughly qualified for the task and provide a unique service for the children and their families.
You can find them here.
With this the budget for translations is used up again. If you would like to donate money, here is how you can go about it.
Best wishes, Hanna Vock, September 4 th , 2011
