Your advent challenge for today is all about attention to detail. You are going to answer a question about The Twelve Days of Christmas.

Watch the song on Youtube below, or download a pdf of the song’s lyrics.

Now that you know the song, here comes your question. How many gifts, in total, did I receive during the Twelve Days of Christmas – according to the song?

Your choices are: a) 66; b) 78; c) 364.

Teachers’ note: this is even more fun if everyone has to estimate an answer within one minute – BEFORE calculating the answer based on the song lyrics.

Scroll down for the answer.

SOLUTION:

364
