There are lots of fun projects and neat scissors out there for when your little little is ready to start cutting. I know my youngest spent hours just randomly cutting scraps. Here are a couple of 'old school' beginning scissors; the green ones are pure plastic and the orange or 'alligator' pair have a very small blade and work best for children who haven't yet mastered the action of bringing your fingers together to cut. If you've found any other clever starter scissors let me know!
Today we started with some simple exercises from the Kumon "Let's Cut Paper" book for 2's. Then we cut our own snowflakes with a little assistance. I let her do the cutting while I held the paper static, but as you can see it still turned out adorable!
