Scissors are designed for small hands to easily use and cut all types of paper or construction paper. They are made of plastic with aluminum inlaid blades to keep the sharp metal away from skin. Blades have blunt tips instead of pointed tips and do not have sharp edges. Ambidextrous scissors can be used by right-handed or left-handed students. They are recommended for students in preschool through second-grade. Each pair of scissors is 5-1/2" long.
