Self Opening Long Loop Scissors 45mm Rounded Blade (Children's)

Self Opening Long Loop Children's Scissors

Our Long Loop Self-Opening Scissors (LPL & LPR) have been designed with an extended loop to give increased strength and control over the cutting action with the added benefit of a discreet spring which automatically reopens the scissors, allowing the child to concentrate on manipulating the paper and directing the cut.

For hand-writing and cutting activities make sure the child is well supported with feet firmly on the ground. Table at hip height. Use a box or adjustable chair to assist.

Good for:

  • Older children who prefer a more conventional styling but are unable to manage opening and closing the scissors
  • Poor grip strength
  • Reduced motor control

Good to know:

  • Discreet spring re-opens scissors after every cut
  • Wide finger contact area ensures a comfortable grip
  • Blue handles = right hand, green handles = left hand
  • Rounded blade on children's scissors, pointed blade on adult scissors
  • Blade guard for safe storage

  • Walking along the road to school less stressful.

    Comfortable, easy for child to put on themselves and adjust, these also fold back down to be compact. They do not block a lot of sound but lower levels. They make walking along the road to school less stressful for my daughter taking the sound of passing cars to "noisy cat purrs" in her words.

    Our Story

    When my son was born with autism, my world changed and Sensory Direct was born

    Ethan had been prescribed different forms of medication, and although they helped a little, I didn’t want to become reliant upon them, so Ethan’s Paediatric Consultant suggested a Weighted Blanket. I remember hearing this and thinking ‘what on earth is a Weighted Blanket’? At this stage I was blissfully unaware of how life changing that Weighted Blanket would become.

    British Born Solutions

    Sensory Direct’s principle drive and values are based on wanting to help and support others find their solution.

    We strongly believe in our products and ensure that the same love and care that went into making my son’s first Weighted Blanket goes into every handmade product we produce here in Worcester. We pride ourselves on our Customer Service and we will do our utmost to find you a solution that works.
