\"scissors\"<\/a>Abigail has started to show an interest in the workings of scissors. Previously I have always flat out denied her requests to use some, but I think she is ready to start learning now. We had a pair of those almost useless plastic encased children’s safety scissors that we got when Stephanie was starting to learn how to use scissors.
