Let’s Cut Paper – Kumon

This is a workbook in the First Steps series. It is designed for young children, aged 2 and up, who have never used a workbook before. The colorful and easy exercises in each First Steps workbook provide toddlers with the opportunity to become comfortable with the tools that are essential in school work–scissors, glue, pencils, and crayons. These workbooks also teach the motor skills and problem-solving abilities that are a child’s First Steps towards success.

Learning to safely use a pair of scissors is an important part of preparing for school work. This workbook is for children who have never used scissors before. Children will learn how to hold and control a pair of scissors, and will advance from simple one-stroke cuts all the way to cutting complicated curved and zig-zagged lines and shapes.

We think these little workbooks are great. Young home schooled children want to have some school books just like their older siblings. Having several of these on hand will help toddlers feel part of the process when you “do school”.
