Materials
Construction paper cut into large feather shapes
Scissors
Directions
Cut out several construction paper feather shapes for your toddler. Provide your child with a pair of child-size scissors. (Fiskars make a good pair of scissors; the Dollar Tree has scissors that work sufficiently) Invite your child to snip around the edges of the feather.
This activity provides excellent fine motor practice and requires focus and concentration
Preschool age children:
Provide feather shapes on card stock. Invite your child to trace around the feather shape, then cut out and fringe the feather.
