We are working on using scissors to snip play dough this week in LiL and Pre-K. First our parents/carer will support their child to roll a long sausage shape with the play dough. Then parents/carer will support their child to hold the scissors ✂️ (we have special play dough scissors for our little ones to begin learning to snip with). Thumb 👍🏻 up in top hole, fingers in bottom hole. Wrist close to their body (no chicken 🐔 wings -keep elbows and wrists close). Hold the playdough sausage with their ‘holding hand’ with wrist in and thumb 👍🏻 up on this hand too. Sing 🎶’open shut them, open shut them, give a little snip. Open shut them, open shut them, cut off lots of bits!’ 🎶
