Our take on the Pen+Gear 5 in Kids' Scissors
The Pen+Gear 5-inch Kids' Scissors are a single pair of blunt-tip scissors with small handles sized for children 4 and up. The rounded tips and compact 5-inch length suit paper, string and construction paper work in classrooms and at craft tables. They are a basic, low-cost option rather than a feature-rich one: there is no soft-grip handle, no ambidextrous or left-handed version, and no sheath. Buyers rate them highly, and for light school cutting they hold up against pricier kids' scissors.
