- - - - Creating a collage by cutting and sticking images to a piece of paper promotes the developmental norm of being able to use scissors to cut along lines and (from 6) cut out circles (at ages 5-7) by allowing the child who is crafting the collage to practice their fine motor skills through these action's.
        
        To prepare the materials and guide the kids in the activity while ensuring their security.
