CUTTING BOX! ✂️ Give your child some freedom with cutting, but in a super controlled way! I threw some scraps in a bin, modeled proper scissor use, reviewed expectations and rules, and let Roo go to town cutting until her heart was content. This was Roo’s first experience with scissors. I researched and found this pair of @fiskars training scissors on Amazon and couldn’t be more impressed! They have a lever that helps little ones get the feeling of the cutting motion. Roo went back to this activity throughout the day and spent a total of 2.5 HOURS cutting. Cross my heart…this activity set a new record in our house! Watching her confidence build with this new tool was so fun to see! And she had an absolute blast feeling like such a big kid. TEACHER HACK: Put a sticker on your child’s upward facing thumb as a visual reminder of a proper scissors grip! DISCLAIMER: This activity should be supervised at all times. Please use your judgment as to whether or not your child is ready to handle scissors. LTKBacktoSchool LTKFind LTKkids
