We have a range of specialty scissors to assist children in learning to cut. It is important to know that beginner scissors come in either right handed or left handed options. Left handed children need to learn with left handed scissors. These are much easier to use as the blades are reversed.
The spring action scissors are particularly good for children with a weak 'open and shut' action. The Peta scissors provide an excellent quality scissor that will last many years. If you are unsure which scissor suits your child please email us and one or our therapists will get back to you.
