Just curious, how many of you let your 3yo’s use scissors at home? 🤨 another message I received from my son’s teacher is that he needs to work on his motor skills because he can’t use scissors lol

Have him practice cutting shapes. I feel like that is a skill he should be developing, not have mastered. 🤔. I think she needs to settle down.

I’ve been trying to work on it since receiving the message. It’s terrifying, but he does try lol I’ve been letting him cut up play doh 🙃

Yes I definitely did not give my kid scissors at 3. He’s only 3 he’s not 5 like things take time to learn and practice with.

@mrssanderson There are safety scissors that are appropriate for children. Google them and get some. A three year old should being using scissors and practicing basic it cutting skills WITH SUPERVISION. My daughter's occupational therapist started with her using them at 2.5. It helps develop fine motor skills. I started out drawing basic squares and circles and her cut them out she loved it. There are also scissor skill books you can get on Amazon and they have fun pictures kids can cut out and glue.
