Established March 31, 2003, Scissorcraft is a free online educational and fun Web site. I originally created the web site on my home PC to entertain my young grandchildren when they visit. Today "Scissorcraft" is the main hub for many more free craft sites which are listed in the copyright and license page.
I believe true creativity come from the heart and is enhanced with actual hands on experience. Virtually every time the grand kids visit we spend time together deciding which images to print and color. When we go to restaurants, we take the printouts along with our crayons and markers. We spend much quality time cutting, coloring, stapling, pasting, folding...you name it!
Virtually every graphic in the Scissorcraft family of web sites, is available in simple, easy to understand, black and white format so that all children, regardless of age, skill level, or disability, can have something to cut, color and decorate to their heart's content while they gain exposure to the basic principles of mathematics, history and culture.
Each image is presented in several different formats. Most have a colored "icon" which may be used as clip art for personal, educational or non-profit use. All images are registered with the US Copyright office and all commercial use is expressly denied! (Don't go there unless you want to hear from my copyright attorneys.)
More images and artwork will be added on a regular basis, and who knows, a new web site can spring forth at any time.
Future plans include adding images of diverse religious, cultural and historical significance.
Topic or theme suggestions are appreciated.
The Scissorcraft Family of Sites uses Google Adsense and Adsdaq primarily.
