My name is Katherine and I am the owner of Play Paper Scissor.

But first and foremost, I am the mom of a lovely 2 year old, wife, daughter, sister and friend.

Finding balance among all those hats of life it's no easy thing to do, and sometimes I failed at one (or two, or some...). 

But hey, we are only humans, right? 

However, there was that one "little" thing I new I was failing at my son, which was too much screen time. 

During pregnancy I heard all about how harmful screens could be to the littles ones, specially in early childhood, so I told myself I would not do that to my child. But then...

"OK, just 5 minutes so I can do the dishes..."

“So you wanna watch Tomas and Friends? Alright, but just 10 minutes…”

Pretty quickly I realized my son was watching tv pretty much e-v-e-r-y-d-a-y and that would be my go to resource whenever I needed some time to do chores, reply to e-mails, etc.

Sound familiar? Yeah, I know...

But this was not the mom I wanted to be for my son. He deserved better.

So I started looking for TV alternatives: activities that he would actually ENJOY doing and that would help his development instead of just keeping him busy for my sake.

That's when I came across activities books. And since I couldn't find one that checked all the boxes, I decided to make my own, curating the very best activities out there and with my very own original content (like the Kindness Chart!).

Not only my son loved it but then my friend's kids loved it too, and the kids of my friend's friend, and the pre-school teacher... 

And that way Play Paper Scissor was born!

I hope you and your kids enjoy playing and learning with my activties as much as we do around our house.

Please let me know what you think and don't forget to tag us on social media.

Thank you once again so for supporting my little shop.

With love,

Katherine
