Scissor Skills: Cutting Practice for Ages 35 — Snipping, Straight Lines, Curves and Shapes

Every cut has two black edges to stay inside and a grey line down the middle to aim for, and the band gets narrower as your child gets steadier.What is inside- 40 cutting pages, every one different - no filler, no repeats- Printed on one side only, so the page can be torn out and cut with nothing lost from the back- Four sections in developmental order: snipping, straight cuts, curves, then corners and shapes- A grown-up note on every page: what it builds, and what to do if it is hard- How to hold the scissors, what the other hand should be doing, and what to do if your child is left-handed- A ready check at the front, so you start in the right place- A progress chart at the back8.5 × 11 inches. 92 pages.
