Kids love to cut with scissors and play with tape! This creative and practical activity pad set provides engaging, creative direction for scissor and tape work, meaning more concentration and less mess. Organized from simple to more complex, 20 different paper-cutting projects (with complete supplies included right in the pages of the book) help kids practice slightly different skills and techniques. Plastic safety scissors that naturally encourage proper form and are safe for preschoolers are included—but any pair of scissors can be used to complete the paper-cutting projects.

The spiral-bound tape activity book contains 20 reusable picture pages filled with color, packed with cheery details, and almost complete: All that's missing are colorful tape strips to fill the empty white stripes, dashes, spokes, and more! Kids can pull, press, and tear four rolls of color tape to add the laces on a shoe, stripes on a zebra, blades on a helicopter, ties on a train track, and much more--there are 20 pictures in all to complete and embellish. The Melissa & Doug Scissor Skills and Tape Activity Pad makes an exceptional gift for kids from 4 to 7 years. Add the Melissa & Doug Scratch Art Box to round out the hands-on, screen-free play experience.
