Welcome Parents!
Do you have a visual-spatial child? Let's find out!
-
Does your child remember what is seen
but forget what is heard?
-
Does your child have a vivid imagination?
-
Can your child visualize objects from
multiple perspectives?
-
Does your child enjoy solving puzzles and mazes?
These are children who would reather spend the day
with a new box of LEGOs
than do nearly anything
else in the world. Kids who can get so absorbed in
creative play, they lose all sense of time.
Often labeled unorganized, unfocused, poor spellers
or worse,
visual-spatial learners can be
equal parts pleasure and
frustration
to parent. We're here to help!
Let's get started:
What is a visual-spatial learner? Learn more.
Have your child take the VSL Quiz for Kids!
Have a question about parenting a visual-spatial learner? Check out
PowerTools, our new Q&A forum hosted by Linda Powers Leviton!
Check out our Exceptional Children page for
information on Gifted Visual-Spatial
Learners and
Visual-Spatial Children with Learning Disabilities.
We've got articles written specifically for parents
that will help you identify
your child's
learning style,
give them strategies to succeed
in school,
maintain harmony at home, and more.
And books for you, your child and your child's teacher!

If You Could See the Way I Think:
A Handbook for Visual-Spatial Kids by Alexandra "Allie" Golon, This book is like having a personal tutor at your child's
fingertips. This book is aimed at
visual-spatial students and offers proven
techniques for success in areas that these
children, regardless of intellectual
ability, often struggle in: spelling, memorizing times tables,
handwriting,
taking timed tests, getting and staying organized, taking notes, focusing
during auditory lectures, self-advocacy and sleep issues. The book is a
celebration of the
gifts of this learning style, despite what grades many of
these children earn in a traditional
classroom.
Signed copies available for just $18.95, or $16.95 for the e-book!
