Ok so I took one of those stupid quizzes that I am a sucker for.
: This one was on the BostonParentsPaper.com entitled "is your child ready for pre-school". One question was about drawing and using scissors. My son, who will be 3 in August, loves to color, uses crayons with ease, can draw circles, smiley faces and squares and can occasionally not color outside the lines however I have never even entertained the idea of giving him kiddies scissors. Maybe it's my own upbringing but I don't remember using scissors until at least kindergarten. We do let him use a knife (small butter one) at dinnertime and he's basically pretty careful.
So what about you? Does your toddler use scissors and if so at what age do you introduce them??
