We encourage you to use whatever materials you have available to practice cutting. We have already introduced how to use a cereal box to practice cutting (see Fine Motor Activities-Cereal Box). You can also use empty toilet paper or paper towel rolls to practice cutting and make a fun craft! If you have old magazines lying around, have your child practice cutting out pictures and/or shapes.
