What’s inside: Free printable preschool cut and paste worksheets to practice scissor skills.
My preschoolers enjoy any cut and paste activity these days. Whether it’s cutting up old magazines or construction paper for our crafts, they are all about it.
So, to promote this fine motor skill even further, I decided to create these fun cut and paste worksheets.
Preschoolers will enjoy cutting out and pasting animals and pictures they normally encounter in books or see in their favorite shows.
They will be a perfect addition to cutting skills practice in preschool!
And now you get my fun and colorful Scissor skills activity book for ONLY $2!
In this set of printable preschool worksheets, I focused on topics close to a preschooler’s heart. Therefore my cut and paste activities contain images of different cars, animals, bugs, flowers, dinosaurs, and more.
And a bonus is that they all can be colored too!
There is a total of seven simple activity sheets included.
What you’ll need:
If your preschooler is just starting out with scissors, you might want to help him with cutting the pieces out of each worksheet. Show him how to hold the scissors correctly and teach him the typical movement “open-close-open-close”.
Then let him find and match the pieces together.
Older preschoolers will be able to finish this activity independently.
My kids usually finish two pages at a time and we leave the rest for another day. See what works best for you and your child.
You may want to use these worksheets during center time in the classroom or as a fun independent activity at home.
And they are so universal, that they can even complement common preschool lessons throughout the year.
Cut and paste hearts is a really popular activity here on Planes&Balloons. Children will enjoy cutting and matching various hearts together.
Match and glue shapes help children not only with their scissor skills but also with 2d shapes recognition. Perfect for math and fine motor practice!
Cut and paste snowflakes is a cute winter activity to keep children entertained during cold winter days. Kids will not only work on their fine motor skills but also visual discrimination as some of the snowflakes look very similar.
Fruit and vegetable sorting activity is a great activity to include in your preschool curriculum. Children will learn to recognize and name different types of fruit and vegetables. But also work on sorting skills and scissor skills.
Sequencing for preschoolers is an important pre-literacy skill. Now they can practice story sequence with these cut and paste worksheets, too.
