Product Description

Kids love to cut with scissors--as you can see by the trail of scraps often left in their wake! This creative and practical activity pad gives an engaging, creative direction to scissor work, meaning more concentration and less mess. Organized from simple to more complex, 20 different paper cutting projects (with complete supplies included right in the pages of the book) practice slightly different skills and techniques, and produce 20 unique crafts, games, and activities to offer kids a creative focus and a sense of accomplishment. Plastic safety scissors are included, which naturally encourage proper form and are safe for preschoolers--but any pair of scissors can be used to complete the paper-cutting projects. This product is certified by the Forest Stewardship Council. FSC certification ensures that products come from responsibly managed forests that provide environmental, social, and economic benefits, and that forests are protected for future generations. Please note that FSC certification applies to new inventory only (FSC C156584)

    This adorable and super fun activity book with the child safety scissors really improved my daughter’s confidence with scissors overall. It also helped her to gain more control over her cuts by improving her hand/eye coordination which I love. The pages are brightly colored and the activities kept her interested and engaged and the cutout activities became more challenging so it never became too easy or made her feel bored. This activity book had her practicing cutting along directional lines and it has increased her awareness of staying inside the lines when she is coloring in coloring books too which is another plus. This activity book is fun and engaging and is a great educational gift for those learning to use scissors.

    The book is thick and has many pages in it. The paper is thicker to make cutting easier. They are varying degrees of difficulty for the cutting. My second grade daughter can cut some of them. Her 3-year-old sister can cut some of them. The scissors included are nice as they are safety and cannot cut other things. However, they do not make for ease of cutting the 3-year-old and the 7-year-old will not use them. The 2-year-old is learning to cut with them and I feel they're a good match for him. However, the pages in the book are not.

    My daughter showed interest in cutting up paper just before she turned 5. Giving her this super fun activity book and some child safety sizors improved her confidence in her own abilities, as well as helped her to gain more control over her cuts by improving her hand/eye coordination. The brightly colored pages and activities kept her interest and the cutout activities progressively become more challenging so it never becomes monotonous or too easy. Giving her this fun activity book to practice using sizors and cutting along directional lines has increased her awareness of staying inside the lines when she is coloring in other activity books! 5 stars! Amazing idea and very well executed! Fun and educational gift for those learning to use sizors and adults who are helping them will enjoy it as well! Thanks!

    Definitivamente lo recomiendo para empezar a aprender cortar con las tijeras.
    Primero lo probé yo intentando cortarme los dedos para asegurarme que si mi bebé va pescar sus deditos no le va a pasar nada.
    Las tijeras son absolutamente seguras para los peques.
    Son bastante buenos para cortar las hojas del papel estándar. El cartón ya no.
    El libro tiene la variedad diferente de imagines de formas diferentes lo que ayuda a los chiquitos a aprender cómo se hace y mejorar sus habilidades.

    Love this book. My daughter received it for Christmas a couple years ago and really enjoyed cutting the shapes out. I was surprised when she started Kindergarten but how much better she was at using scissors (and even pens which I think may have also stemmed from the dexterity she learned from using scissors) than the other children. I have now purchased this book for my godson for Christmas and am excited for him to use it. The scissors are safe with no metal blade (all plastic, not sharp). My daughter still has them and actually just used them today to cut through cardstock. This book is a simple concept that really teaches valuable skills.
