Scissor cutting in early childhood is a founational milestone that significantly accelerates a chid's fine motor development, coordination and school readiness. It helps build hand strength when opening and closing the blades, it teaches each finger to move independently and prepares for handwriting as the grip is similar to that of the tripod pencil grasp. The children in the Kindergarten room enjoyed the activity and were all concentrating hard at the task.
We still have spots available in the Kindergarten room for the remainder of 2026 and we have access to the 15hrs of Free Kindy as well. To book a tour go to http://kelso.milestones.com.au/book-a-tour or call the centre directly on 07 47896000.

Big feelings can be loud, exhausting, and sometimes arrive at the worst possible moment 🌻
For toddlers and preschoolers, emotional blow-ups often happen because they’re still learning how to cope with frustration, change, and big moments, not because anyone is “doing it wrong”.
At Milestones, we support children through big feelings with calm, consistent care, helping them feel safe while they build emotional skills over time.
