Academy Juvenile Award
Academy Honorary Award
Academy Special Achievement Award
The Irving G. Thalberg Memorial Award
The Jean Hersholt Humanitarian Award
Academy Juvenile Award
This award is officially called the Honorary Juvenile Award. It was first awarded for work in 1934 and continued sporadically until 1960. There is no list of nominees. The trophy itself was a miniature statuette, although this received criticism and Shirley Temple, at least, was re-awarded with a full-sized statue some time later. This Honorary Award was eventually chosen to stop; children can now be nominated for the same Academy Awards as adults.List of Winners
