Tip of the Day

Don’t toss out all the “junk” mail… let your little one cut out things they like and create a collage… it’s FREE and gets some fine motor skills practice in for your little one… they will have a ton of fun doing it :0)

    Great idea! My son has just gotten interested in the whole scissor thing and is so fascinated by the whole cutting concept. Now I actually love those cards that fall out of magazines…ok…love is a strong word…maybe “not so annoyed” is closer to what I feel 🙂 Thanks for this “green” tip!

    This is a great idea. I do not know why I never thought of it! My daughter is always wanting to practice with the scissors, but I never want to waste good paper. Thanks for the tip!
