Product Description

2005 Finalist for the Association of Educational Publishers’ Distinguished Achievement Award, this workbook gives children the opportunity to practice using scissors accurately. Many children have difficulty cutting exactly on the lines, so this workbook has children begin cutting on thick lines before moving gradually to thinner ones. Children will eventually be comfortable cutting straight lines, curves, and circles, and the practice will help develop their manual dexterity.

Wonderful Book!
My four year old daughter cannot get enough of this book! The pages are a good quality thickness and the pictures are beautiful and bright. Every page presents a new challenge and a fun image to cut out. My daughter is very confident now with her scissors. Bravo Kumon!

Kumon Cutting
Kumon is quickly becoming a family favorite. My 3 year old love puzzles and the Kumon workbooks are easy to follow, give direction to parents, and make it easy to get the next book in your child's progression.
My 3 year old is telling time by looking at a face clock. I know the Kumon series of books is helping him every day. They are fun and he is eager to learn using them.

My son is 3 and his preschool teachers told the parents in September to start working with the kids on cutting. This Kumon workbook has improved his cutting skills beyond belief. His teachers asked what we were doing with him because his skills surpassed his peers by so much.

great for older kids...
I love the graphics and the paper that this book is printed on. Be aware that most of the cutting is pretty challenging, even for my first graders. If your child doesn't have great fine motor skills, be prepared to help them with the cutting. That being said, it is great for developing those skills that teachers don't have a lot of time to teach these days- like cutting and gluing.
