Were you able to memorize how many days are there in each month?

30 days hath september, april, june and november. all the rest have 31 except February. using your knuckles and the space between your finger count off the months. left pinky knuckle is January, the space between the knuckles is february and so on. The knuckles are all 31 days. I do not know where i learned that useless trick, but there you have it.

I learned a poem. Thirty days has September, April, June and November, when short February's done, all the rest have thirty one. I find myself muttering this poem when I need to know how many days are in a month. Sometimes I remember right off the top of my head, but not always.

I tend to forget, it's quite silly but I just ask my wife who reminds me in her very special way of "you asked the other day". It's just one of those things I seem to forget easily, I can't explain it. Strangely I always remember certain months, easy when one is your birthday.

i am using my knuckles.or the other method is to looks at the calendar-so i can checked other important dates too~or asking someone beside me.haha...i always dothis when my my nephews or my niece are there with me.what date is today???and then they will give me the answer~haha.. actually i like to find it myself~

Hi, I have very simple method my dad taught me. On my hand the knuckles and valleys between the knuckles are months. All the 'mountaintops' are 31 days and all the'valleys' are 30 or in February's case 28, 29 days. Start with your left hand and first finger's knuckle is January and 31 days. Count the months and end with the last knuckle July, 31 days. On your right hand start backwards with August, 31 days, on second knuckle (I mean wedding ring finger knuckle). So counting you end with December, 31 days, on top of the last mountain. Dad taught me that when I was 6 or 7 years old, since then I forgot it and thought the calendar when pictured in 3X4 format is symmertical. Sadly to say I was wrong and I had many arguments with my friends and family, so I had to check. I never liked to be wrong, even with such a little detail so many years ago. Never again though.

i also dont rem the days if some day come as a routine to me it get slipped from my mind that is out of the blue it gets replayed liek if there is a holiday on monday so on tuesday i will think its friday coz my holiday is on thursday that is what i feel that all people r too bugged up with there work taht they forget what tehy r doing in the world on other things like admiring teh view and doing stuff u havent tried all lives r becomming like routine and repedetely occuring like clockwork

30 days has september, april, june and november. All the rest have 31 except February which has 28, 29 on a leap year

I don't know how I remember them, thing is it is automatic for me now. 30 days are April, June, September, and November. Feb. is 28 days and 29 with years that can be divided by 4.

yes, i can memeorize. there is a poetry which help to remember it but sorry i can't share bcoz it's on my local language.

I did learn it from a poem that I learned when I was in elementary school and because of that poem I don't think that I will ever forget how many days are in a specific month of the year. 30 days has September, April June and November all the rest have 31 except for February which has 28 (and sometimes 29 depending on the given year.) If you are able to remember that poem then you will always know how many days are in each month except that you might get confused during leap year.

There's a little song about the days of the month that i learned in elementary school. Whenever i think i am uncertain about the days in a month, i find myself singing this song. it really does help to remember them this way.

I just memorized with the short forms of the months. Ap-June-Sep-Nov are 30 and the rest 31 with February being an exception. When I have trouble memorizing things like this, I always take the first 2-3 letters of the word and I make a single word from those letters, in the order I have to memorize them. I hope you understand it. Like the word from this months is apjunsepnov. A new word which helps me a lot.

hi invisiblelady, here in our place, we had a rhyme to know the number of days of each month of course, for normal year excluding leap year. it goes like this. 30 days has sept, april may and nov. all the rest has 31 except feb which has 28. hope that helps. :-) happy mylotting.

I was never very good at doing things like that that's why i never knpw the date just the day so i have my phone so i can tell when i need to.

When my parents were in school this was something they were taught and had to learn. When I was in school they never even tried teaching it to us. My mother used to recite it but I could never remember it. I think after I graduated I finally sat down and read through the poem and memorized it. LOL so I didnt learn it until I was around 18 or so I'm guessing.

Hi invisiblelady! I know I've learnt that in elementary school because we were forced to memorize them. But apart from February with 28 days the other months have been lost from retention since, partly because no else has ever bothered to ask about them. Perhaps age has also caught up. Heehee

Don't feel bad, I have the same problem. I remember that October has 31 days only because I know that Halloween is on the 31st, LOL...
