Our paper cutting and coloring arts and crafts activity allows children to creatively express themselves. Using scissors to cut out the fun shapes will allow children to develop their hand – eye coordination skills, fine motor skills, and build up the muscles in their hand, fingers, and wrist. These muscles are important for writing, painting, and doing everyday tasks such as brushing your teeth, eating with utensils, and getting dressed.

Coloring also helps children build up the muscles in their hand which aids in manipulating small objects. It also improves hand-eye coordination and develops spatial awareness.

STEPS:

1, Fold along the dotted line

2, Cut along the solid black lines

3, Unfold to reveal the shape

4, Color
