Historical Fiction -- Medieval The medieval era is a favorite of many gifted children; they love the tales of chivalry, of honor, of knights. The Renaissance Era is actually part of the Medieval Era; it is the end of the Medieval times and represents a "rebirth" of knowledge.

Parenting Tip: If your gifted child loves the Medieval Era, consider taking him or her to one of the Renaissance Faires that take place throughout the U.S. (and in many other countries, as well!) These faires allow the children (and their parents) not only to see what life was like in the Medieval/Renaissance Era, but to participate to a small degree as well. Of course, it's all in fun, so behavior, etc., isn't going to be exactly what it was like in the olden days, but children and their parents can still learn a great deal. And since many people dress up in costume, children can be a princess or a knight for a day! For more information about Renaissance Faires, visit Renaissance Magazine's faire list page.
