I buy the Fiskar's child scissors. They are great for snipping thread on a quilt. No danger of accidently cutting the quilt. The soft grip handles are a must and also pretty. The red and green see thru color rulers are great for finding color contrast in fabric.
As one teacher told me at grandson's school:
Do the kids a favor and and don't buy the off brand of scissors. They will not cut as smoothly for little hands as the Fiskars. Kids get frustrated with the tools that don't perform just like we do. One other thing, the .50 pack of Crayola crayons are random colors left from the bigger packs. Most do not have the primary colors in them so check before buying. There is a reason the package is .50
