I know someone else posted about the 12 days of Christmas, but I heard a different version today at school so I thought I’d try and remember it for you.
My true love brought to me…
one lyrebird in a gum tree
two beach umbrellas
three splashing swimmers
four …
five banana chairs
six …
seven …
eight crazy chickens
nine…
ten…
eleven pairs of thongs
twelve …
Ok, so there’s a lot I forgot so I’ll see if I can get the rest to fill in the gaps!
That sounds like a fun version, Bron, and I hope you remember more soon so we can know all of the gifts!
I’d like to hear the Aussie version and the American version side by side. The 12 Days of Christmas is my favorite Christmas carol.
They don’t really sound any different (i.e. the same tune goes for both), it’s just some different lyrics to allow for our hot Christmases vs the white Christmas in many places up north.
