Scissor skills are essential for children’s development. Scissors are an important teaching tool because they help children develop hand-eye coordination, strength, and dexterity.
Kids need to be able to cut along a straight line, make curves, and cut in a circular motion. These free printable polar bear cutting activity pages are great for practicing their scissor skills. There are four different printables, including the cute polar bear and his adorable antics!
Download and use these hands-on activities with preschool, pre-k, and kindergarten children! These activity pages are perfect for kids who need some winter fun.

Inside this activity set, we’ve included four unique polar bear worksheets for young children to practice.
First, these are standard cutting sheets. Kids will use their scissors to cut from one end of the paper to the other end along a straight line, curved line, wavy line, or zig-zagged line.
On the second sheet, kids will follow a curved line from the start to the end, where the polar bear is. This one will have your kids working on holding the paper as they move their scissors along the line.
On the third worksheet, kids will cut out the bottom half of the polar bear and glue it to the left side of the page. This will help with scissor skills, fine motor skills, and learning how much glue to use.
Finally, on the last page, children cut out the numbers on the right side of the page. Then, they count the polar bears in each of the rectangles and glue the numbers in the correct spot.
This activity page is great for counting and number recognition as well!
