But babies and toddlers have to think about the process, consciously putting effort into figuring out how to hold scissors and how to move them to make a cut.<\/p>\r\n<p>Scissor skills are actually quite impressive if you think about it! Being able to use scissors requires:<\/p>\r\n<ul>\r\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.babysparks.com\/2016\/06\/15\/fine-motor-skills-your-babys-first-year-of-life\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Fine motor skills<\/a> (coordinating fingers, hands, and wrists to work together)<\/li>\r\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.babysparks.com\/2019\/05\/14\/hand-eye-coordination-how-the-eyes-brain-and-hands-work-together\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Hand-eye coordination<\/a> to move the scissors along a line<\/li>\r\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.babysparks.com\/2019\/02\/20\/pay-attention-how-to-nurture-your-childs-attention-skills\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Ability to focus<\/a> on the task in order to keep the scissors on a line<\/li>\r\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.babysparks.com\/2019\/03\/01\/how-gross-motor-skills-support-fine-motor-development\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Good posture<\/a> to sit up straight and hold the scissors and paper properly<\/li>\r\n<li>Coordination between both sides of the body, or bilateral coordination, to hold and manipulate the scissors with one hand, and the paper with the other.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<p>That\u2019s a lot of work! Your toddler won\u2019t master each of these skills during toddlerhood but will continue developing each piece for a few more years, usually through age 6.<\/p>\r\n<h2>How Scissor Skills Develop During Toddlerhood<\/h2>\r\n<p>During your baby\u2019s first two years, she learns a lot of necessary skills she\u2019ll need to start working with scissors, like:<\/p>\r\n<ul>\r\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.babysparks.com\/2017\/03\/30\/sitting-up-a-new-way-to-move-and-view-the-world\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Sitting up<\/a> by herself<\/li>\r\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.babysparks.com\/2017\/05\/01\/hands-our-most-incredible-tools-part-2\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Making small, precise movements with her hands and fingers<\/a>, like turning the pages of a book<\/li>\r\n<li>Manipulating small objects with her hands, like opening a snack bar wrapper or moving toy cars around a playmat<\/li>\r\n<li>Beginning to develop <a href=\"https:\/\/www.babysparks.com\/2019\/02\/20\/what-is-spatial-awareness-how-does-it-develop\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">spatial awareness<\/a> that can help her follow a line to cut<\/li>\r\n<li>Continuing to develop hand-eye coordination to help her eyes and hands stay in sync when cutting<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<p>Between months 24 and 36, what she\u2019s learned so far will continue to evolve to improve her scissor skills.<\/p>\r\n<p><strong>25 \u2013 27 Months<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p>Your toddler will learn to open and close safety scissors with both hands rather than one. This is okay! She\u2019s learning how they work and what they do as she figures out how to hold them.<\/p>\r\n<p><strong>28 \u2013 30 Months<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p>Your toddler will start to open and close scissors with just one hand, although she may still switch back and forth between each hand (she probably won\u2019t choose a dominant hand just yet; that usually comes closer to age four). She won\u2019t be able to cut paper yet, but she might be able to cut playdough or clay.<\/p>\r\n<p><strong>31 \u2013 33 Months<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p>Your toddler\u2019s grasp will mature, making it easier for her to snip paper with her scissors. However, she will probably need your help holding the paper for her to cut.<\/p>\r\n<p><strong>34 \u2013 36 Months<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p>During these months, your toddler will start to use one hand to guide paper toward her scissors while she cuts with the other. She may now begin making forward cuts in her paper, but she may not be able to cut in a straight line yet.<\/p>\r\n<p>Giving your toddler a few fine motor activities to do every day will continue to develop her finesse with using scissors. You can check the BabySparks development program\u2019s fine motor suggestions to find fun activities that are right on target for your toddler\u2019s age and skills.<\/p>\r\n<p><\/p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text] Your child should be able to hold and use scissors when she reaches kindergarten (even if she doesn\u2019t yet cut a straight line), so there\u2019s no better time to<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":5633,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[14],"tags":[93,3175],"age":[2858,2859,2860,2861],"class_list":["post-5634","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-fine-motor","tag-bilateral","tag-fine-motor-2","age-25-27-months","age-28-30-months","age-31-33-months","age-34-36-months"],"translation":{"provider":"WPGlobus","version":"2.12.2","language":"en","enabled_languages":["en","es"],"languages":{"en":{"title":true,"content":true,"excerpt":false},"es":{"title":true,"content":true,"excerpt":false}}},"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v25.2 (Yoast SEO v25.2) -
