I got taught this to learn my left from right at nursery school,
You write with your right hand and what's left is your left hand.
Works well for most kids,but not me I was left handed and I got well mixed up!!!:D

The easiest way to remember your wife's birthday or your Wedding Anniversary is to forget it once.

So I'm told!

Can't forget Christmas - I've got two kids to remind me! Birthday - no chance!

Here's a method that works for most. Hold your hands out in front of you, with the index finger point upward. Move the thumb so that it is at a 90-degree angle to the index finger. The hand where the two fingers form the letter "L" is your left (unless dyslexia is a problem).
