Twelve Days of Christmas,The

This traditional English Christmas carol was first published in 1780 and still delights children and families today. Each new verse builds upon the last, making this cumulative poem fun for young learners to chant along with, and count each of the twelve days of creative gifts given by “my true love.” As each verse ends with “...and a partridge in a pear tree,” children will become familiar with the words and easily remember this engaging poem.
