Although much of the information is available on my website if you search through all my articles, my E-book provides you with all the information at your fingertips in an easily accessible, printable download.

In addition, there are tips, activities and a checklist that are found only in the e-book. These are great resources for teaching scissor skills!

I have also provided some photos of ways in which kids may struggle with cutting out, and I offer some practical advice that parents and teachers can use to assist these kids.

How to Use the E-Book

Your e-book comes in a secure PDF format, which you can save on your device. You can choose whether to read it on your device, or print out the pages you want to have on hand. 

As a homeschooling mom on a tight budget, I make a point of choosing activities that can easily be done at home with inexpensive everyday resources. As with all the activities on my website, real-life photos accompany the instructions.

My Fun Cutting Templates Pack was designed to supplement my Scissor Skills E-Book, with a range of graded cutting printables that help you put into practice the tips and suggestions in my Scissor Skills E-book.

Although the Cutting Templates are now sold individually, I strongly recommend that you get them with the Scissor Skills E-book, and for this reason, I offer a discounted bundle deal of the two books together.

You can view the Fun Cutting Templates here to see what you are getting in the deal!
