I wanna pair of twin handled scissors!

to teach a child how to do scissor movements!

I have seen them, but don't know where to look for them to buy. (I saw them on a course)

I care for a young child who just can't get the knack - and thought these were great - she'll think she's big and independant - but I have the knowledge that I am helping her to do it safely!

TIA

The ones I want are metal - and have a longer bit between adult and child. The child I want to help would never accept those as too much like help!!! Thank you anyway - I do appreciate it.

http://www.camartech.com.au/int-ress/shop.php?aisle=construction-scissors have some with a longer distance between loops, they only snag is that the website is based in Australia. They are only £2.93 but the minimum order is £10 and then there is delivery on top of that - depends how badly you want them!
