How to use

Hold the scissors by the contoured handle with the thumb and fingers positioned as comfortable for the child user, ensuring the right-handed orientation aligns with the dominant hand. Use the short blades to guide the scissors along the paper edge, keeping steady pressure and following the decorative pattern to create consistent figure cuts. Check and, if necessary, adjust the pivot screw to achieve smooth blade action before use. Supervise young children during cutting and store the scissors with blades closed when not in use.

Usage recommendations

For best results when cutting decorative edges, use medium-weight paper or light card stock; very thick materials may reduce cutting performance. Periodically tighten or loosen the pivot screw to maintain optimal blade alignment and replace if blades show significant wear. Always supervise children under 4 and teach safe handling, cleaning blades with a dry cloth and storing in a safe place when not used.
