Scissor Skills Activity Pad

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. For more creative fun, combine this with the Melissa and Doug Decorate Your Own Wooden Butterfly, the Deluxe Wooden Standing Art Easel, Paint & Drawing Supplies, for meaningful learning beyond the classroom For 35+ years, Melissa and Doug has crafted imaginative preschool toys and durable wooden toys built to nurture childhood wonder, with everything from a life-sized grocery store playset to a play kitchen playset and play food to serve plush toys & puppets, to costumes, arts & crafts, and road trip activities for kids. It's the kind of kid-powered play that builds independence and confidence!
