A simple google search on thinking skills will result in over 10 million results. We've tried to give a summary of the most useful resources here.

 

Boffin Squad

Based around the theory of multiple intelligences proposed by Dr. Howard Gardner, Harvard Psychologist and Professor of Education. This site provides a multiple intelligences quiz and a variety of games and activities. The advice and games help children stretch themselves at things they are good at, and also to improve their skills in those areas they find harder.

We use the Boffin Squad quiz at school - parents try it yourself at home and compare with your childs' results.

 
The following books are recommended - but not essential reading. They will be useful for anyone wishing to understand the background to Learn Smart and thinking skills in general.
