Free Printable Cutting Practice

8 pages · easy to harder

Thick dashed lines to cut on, from easy to harder: straight, zigzag, waves, curves, corners, a spiral, shapes, and a cut-and-glue match.

What you type stays on your phone.

How to use it
  1. Use child-safe scissors and sit beside your child. Start with the straight lines on page 1.
  2. Thumb on top ("thumbs up"), cut slowly from the big dot along the dashes. Turn the paper, not the scissors, on curves and corners.
  3. Move on one page at a time. Use the Harder version when cutting on the line gets easy.

Why it helps

Cutting builds hand strength and control, and the two hands learn to work together: one cuts, one holds and turns the paper. Short, thick lines first make it easy to feel successful.
