Learning how to use scissors plays an important role in developing the fine motor skills young children need in order to hold pencils and crayons. These tips will help you to grow your children’s scissor cutting skills. Having strong fine motor skills will help children as they begin the tricky process of learning how to write. It might sound easy, but teaching young children how to cut with scissors is a very complex task. Cutting gives young children independent movements of each finger. Cutting with scissors works on the separation of two sides of the hand and strengthens hand muscles. Cutting also helps develop eye-hand coordination as children hold the paper with one hand and cut with the other while tracking the movement of the scissors with their eyes. Cutting, along with coloring, also help with focus and attention. Tips for Teaching Scissor Cutting Skills: ~Start by providing high quality scissors for beginners- Allary Kids Scissors. Allary open and close easily and have a short, pointed tip for safety. Cheaper scissors tend not to cut as well and lead to frustration. Left-handed children should always use left-handed scissors. The upper blades on true left-handed scissors are on the left side so that children can see the cutting line. Allary is great for right or left hand use, has comfortable E-Z grip handles and designed specially for kids aged 6-9 years old. ? Copyright . All rights reserved. /
