My First Scissor Skills Coloring Book

Beginner cutting practice for toddlers and preschoolers

Enjoy three kinds of activities together: cut out a big picture, cut and paste squares into a scene, and complete simple “What comes next?” patterns. Use child-safe scissors with close adult supervision.

What’s inside

• 40 big and easy activity pages with thick, straight cutting lines for beginners.
• Three kinds of fun: big picture cut-outs, matching squares and simple patterns.
• Matching cut-out squares and paste boxes so little ones can see where each picture goes.
• A “Snip, snip!” warm-up page for first cutting practice.
• A pattern answer key for grown-ups at the back.
• One activity per page with a blank back, so cutting one activity does not spoil another.
• A dashed line near the spine to help a grown-up cut pages out of the book.
• A “This book belongs to” page and a Scissor Star certificate.
• Large 8.5 × 11 inch pages.

Who is this book for?

Toddlers and preschoolers ages 2–4+ who are beginning to use child-safe scissors with a grown-up. The activities offer playful practice in cutting, matching, hand-eye coordination and early pattern thinking.
