Product Description
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 simpler to more complex, 20 different paper-cutting projects (with complete supplies included right in the pages of the book) allow children to practice slightly different skills and techniques and produce 20 distinct crafts, games, and activities that offer them 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. The included safety scissors are child-safe, easy to use, and can be used by right- or left-handed kids. Our scissor skills activity set for kids assists in the development of fine motor skills and cognitive skills. The inclusion of mazes, puzzles, animal art, sequencing activities, and much more stimulates creativity. This child-safe scissors activity set is a great gift for kids ages 4 to 7. Add the Melissa & Doug Reusable Sticker Pad – Habitats Set to round out the hands-on play experience and give kids an engaging option for screen-free fun. For more than 30 years, Melissa & Doug has created beautifully designed imagination- and creativity-sparking products that NBC News called “the gold standard in early childhood play.” Today, Melissa & Doug is proudly partnering with the American Academy of Pediatrics to foster early brain development and help children build important life skills through play.

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.
