Review: Solid choice - I ordered the westcott blunt tip 2-pack scissors for kids. They are durable with stainless steel blades. The fit was great for ages 3-7. It was easy to use and worked well for both right and left handed individuals. We have used it for homework assignments (cutting shapes, lines, etc) and for fun (crafts). The color of the handles are bright and the material is comfortable for little hands to grip.
Review: Great bulk buy! - These scissors will be perfect for school! Why did you pick this product vs others?: I have a kindergartner and 2nd grader who both needed blunt tip scissors so this bulk set at the right price made the most sense to us. Sharpness: They are blut ends so they won't hurt the child yet the blades are sharp enough to cut paper Ease of use: Easy enough for toddler use Quality: Great quality! I see these lasting the whole school year Size: Great size for little hands. Safety: I like the blunt tips so they aren't dangerous with little ones Functionality: Cuts Great!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Safe and Easy Scissors for Kids
*by D***R on September 9, 2025*

These scissors are perfect for little hands. The blunt tips make them safe for kids to use, and the hard plastic handles are sturdy without being uncomfortable. My child has no trouble cutting paper with them, they’re sharp enough for crafts but not so sharp that I worry about accidents. The 2-pack is nice since we keep one at home and one in the school supply bin. The assorted colors are fun, and the size is just right for younger kids learning how to cut. A good, reliable pair of starter scissors for school or arts and crafts.
