"Let's Cut Out! Funny Animals" is a collection of exercises that will help your child learn how to use scissors and carefully cut out pictures from paper. The tasks in the notebook are built on the principle of "from simple to complex". At first, your child will cut along straight lines, then along curved lines: arcs, waves, zigzags, spirals and lines of a more complex shape. You can play with the cut out figures! Completing the tasks will help develop your child's fine motor skills, spatial thinking and imagination.
Teaches how to work with scissors in three stages: first we make a cut (closing and opening the scissors completely), then we learn to cut straight (without closing the scissors completely), and we practice cutting out shapes and figures.
Develops fine motor skills and increases vocabulary.
Teaches you to feel shape: to distinguish straight from curved.
Teaches how to use scissors safely.
To make it easier for your child to cut along zigzag lines, the exercises mark the places (with an asterisk) where the direction of the scissors should be changed.
Helps to enjoy small achievements and get pleasure from learning.
