They were not sturdy enough, they had too much room between the blades, making it difficult to cut even with experience or they were These are the very best scissors I have ever used!

You can use these scissors straight away if you're just interested in cutting if you need the spring back feature of them, find another brand. These do not spring back at all, they are like using regular kid scissors, even with the little middle piece pulled out all the way. This was not a good tool for the purpose for which it was procured, which was to help a child with motor issues learn how It has returned.
My three year old was so excited about these scissors because I was hoping they would teach him how to use scissors, but they just bent the paper, rather than Due to his frustration, he just decided to quit. He learned how to use them immediately with just a pair of kid's school scissors that I bought. If I were you, I would go for the basic type instead.
This was a very large sum of money, I'm not sure why. It's good to know that the price has dropped since then, now that I look at the current price. The kid scissors she could use were too delicate for her age, so I was looking for something to provide some resistance for her. It appears that the traction I had hoped the rubber "automatic opening" thing would provide did not provide as much traction for her as I had hoped. As described on Amazon, they are supposed to provide some kind of spring action when the green rubber tip is in place, but for me I am not experiencing any action. I'm not sure why it's almost ineffective. Perhaps my brand is faulty. My lack of instructions makes me feel like a total moron, since it makes me feel as though there is something wrong. Seriously, it's a pair of kid scissors, so I'm supposed to figure out why there isn't any resistance, am I (Br>In addition to the Fiskars scissors, I also bought (were more inexpensive and provided her with The cool design of these Koopy Spring scissors attracts her more and she prefers using It never occurred to me that scissors would merit such a long review.

As stated above, these are not what I wanted since the hole for the index finger and middle finger won't accommodate two fingers, unless one has Among the scissors manufactured by this company are ones that have one oval hole and one circular Those are the ones I recommend.
The 4 year old boy I have Having a hard time with fine motor skills is a major problem for 1/2). A doctor of occupational therapy suggested he use cutting to strengthen his hand grip, but he gets really frustrated when he tries to open and close the scissors. In response to a blog post, I discovered these products and purchased them, hoping they would make things easier for him. Their behavior is exactly as they have been designed to be. Since the spring makes opening and closing them much easier, he can use them more often. The scissors will then operate like regular scissors once he gains stronger grip. One button can be flipped to deactivate the spring and the scissors will function The purchase I made was a good choice for me.
