  • The giftedness of prodigies is determined by the degree of their talent relative to their ages.

  • A Child Prodigy is a young genius - in his pre-teen years, in fact; a younger version of the Teen Genius. Basically, any genius below 12 is eligible for the title of a Child Prodigy.

abstract
  • The giftedness of prodigies is determined by the degree of their talent relative to their ages. Examples of particularly extreme prodigies could include Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart and Vangelis in music, Magnus Carlsen, Sergey Karjakin, and Judit Polgar in chess, Carl Friedrich Gauss, Srinivasa Ramanujan, John von Neumann, and Terence Tao in mathematics, Pablo Picasso in art, and Saul Kripke in philosophy. There is controversy as to at what age and standard to use in the definition of a prodigy. The term Wunderkind (from German: ="de" xml:lang="de" >"wonder child") is sometimes used as a synonym for prodigy, particularly in media accounts, although this term is discouraged in scientific literature. Wunderkind also is used to recognize those who achieve success and acclaim early in their adult careers.

For the record, despite some Real Life uses of the term, a teenage/high school-age character in college would be a Teen Genius, not this trope. Examples of Child Prodigy include:
