At Least She Knows Not To Run With Them
A couple of months ago I decided that Maya could use a little help with her scissor skills after noticing that she was struggling at school. I found a workbook that had cutting exercises and some projects that I thought she would enjoy and help her to be more comfortable working with scissors. No big deal. Quite boring actually.
I probably should have kept looking when the only scissors I could find for preschoolers cut as well as my own. But, I didn't. No, I knew that she would only be using the scissors while I was right there next to her, under complete adult supervision. And that's what we were doing when she sat on my left and I was looking to the right and she decided to do this:
I am now on the lookout for the safety scissors I used in kindergarten. The kind that couldn't even cut through construction paper.
