I find cutting with a lot of children's scissors very difficult they have been designed for but these RU scissors do cut well. They will cut paper and thin card with no problem. While at the same time being designed as safe as possible the blades not razor sharp and the ends rounded. The scissors have plastic handles soft so they do not cut into a Childs hand.

Even though these are a child's scissor and relatively safe please supervise your young child while they are using scissors RU make other left handed tools too see http://www.ru-lefthanded.co.uk/ for their range .
I wrote this mainly as am article about childrens left handed scissors but RU make a variety of scissors for adult hands . Ordinary scissors , nail scissors, embtoidery scissors , dressmakers scissors, nurses scissorsand kitchen scissors are all available from RU left handed.
My husband is left handed but has learnt to manage right handed tool or to use his left hand, somethings are more difficult than others. At one time left handed children suffered as they were made to use thier right hand and so were not able to achieve the dexteritory and accuracty ib thier work. Happily we have now moved on from this although we all natrually present things the right handed way . My hubby always tells me left handed people are cleverer than right handed ones,:-)
Sorry if this only just qualifies as a toy but unsure where else to post this oppinion.
