This website has a set of geometric tools, starting with a ruler that is printed in reverse for natural movement, so you can draw a line starting from the right while pulling the pencil towards you. The offerings include a guide designed especially for left-handed children to help them develop essential pre-writing skills that suit their natural hand movement and correct grip.

There are also playing cards printed in a way in which left- and right-handed individuals can hold them in the other hand and select with their dominant hands.

Basic stationery

The most useful item on this website is the pen, which allows left-handed people to see what they are writing. It comes with a reversed blade that allows you to hold the pen in the left hand and turn it clockwise, the natural direction for left-handed movement. They also have a pair of scissors with reversed blades for comfortable and frustration-free cutting. For any pair of scissors to work perfectly, the fingers and thumb need to push the blades together laterally. But with a right-handed pair of scissors, for a person who’s left-handed, the fingers and thumb tend to force right-handed blades apart. So, rather than being sheared, the material is merely hacked.
