Blunt-tip is required by school supply list. Some school supply lists specify blunt-tip safety scissors for kindergarten and grade 1.

Fiskars 5-inch scissors use hardened stainless steel blades that maintain sharpness through years of paper, card stock, construction paper and lightweight fabric cutting. The softgrip handle provides cushioning for extended cutting sessions during art class or craft projects. The 5-inch blade length is sized for children's arm span to cut comfortably without the handle reaching the child's palm on the grip.
