Troubleshooting

Scissors are stiff to open and close.

Wipe the blades with a clean, damp cloth and dry thoroughly. A small drop of mineral oil on the pivot point may help, but ensure it's wiped off thoroughly before use by a child.

Blades are not cutting cleanly.

Ensure the paper is positioned correctly between the blades. Check for any debris or residue on the blades. For persistent issues, the pivot may need adjustment or cleaning.

Child finds the grip uncomfortable.

Verify the child is using the correct finger placement for a right-handed grip. Ensure they are not forcing their fingers into the loops. If the discomfort persists, it might be due to individual hand size or preference.
