Pumpkin Cutting Practice Worksheets for Kids
These Pumpkin Cutting Practice Worksheets are such a fun way for your preschooler or Kindergartner to practice scissor skills. Children love to practice skills using themes (and moms do, too!). Your children will love these pumpkin pages as the weather gets cooler!
There are 10 different pages included in this free download.
How to Use these Pumpkin Cutting Pages
To do this activity, your child will need:
– The download in this post (see bottom of page)
– a glue stick
– a pair of child’s scissors
In these cutting practice worksheets, your child cuts out the bottom portion along the dotted lines.
Then cut out the puzzle itself along the dotted lines. Yes, your child will cut through the picture!
Using the guide in the top left corner, paste the puzzle together correctly in the top box.
Feel free to help your child as much as needed for this activity. Maybe he needs help cutting the pieces, but can glue them independently. Or maybe he can cut them easily, but needs helps arranging them in the correct place.
Adapt this activity to what your child needs most!
Why Cutting Practice is Important
Young children need many opportunities to practice and master fine motor skills. Out of my five children, I have had three that needed quite a bit of focused practice with fine motor skills. And we achieved much of that with scissor skills practice!
For preschoolers, cutting practice is often about simply holding scissors correctly and gaining control. By kindergarten, most children are ready to cut out shapes, complete puzzles, and even follow multi-step directions on a page. These pumpkin-themed activities provide the right amount of challenge at each stage.
After you log in, choose the Fall and Winter page and scroll down until you see this particular worksheet packet. Then just click and your download will start immediately.

My 6-year-old loves these cutting exercises. It’s good practice for him, but more than anything it’s a great break between the “serious” school stuff. Thank you for sharing! 🙂
I’m so glad he loves them, Christina! Yes, sometimes a break from the more serious is just what is needed!
Thanks so much for commenting. 🙂
Lauren, thanks for sharing these cutting sheets. I was able to download only 1 paper, which is the above the comments.
May I know how could I download all the 10 pages. I couldn’t find a link to download.
Cheers,
Hi Roshi! You’ll see the wording ‘Click on the image to download Cutting Practice Worksheets for Personal Use’.
Click the image under that wording – it’s a picture of a hay bale.
The download should then start immediately.
Please let me know if you need further help! 🙂
Warmly, Lauren
