Birthday Traditions
A Take-off on Monday's Child

One of the most revered birthday traditions begins with this poem:

"Monday's child is fair of face"

And we have the whole week covered at Here Be Limerick Poems. Find out what day were you or your friend or family member  was born on, then click on your birth day just below that and find your birthday karma - if you dare!

Monday's child is fair of face,
Tuesday's child is full of grace,
Wednesday's child is full of woe,
Thursday's child has far to go,

Friday's child is loving and giving,
Saturday's child works hard for a living,
But the child who is born on the Sabbath Day
Is bonny and blithe and good and gay.

Choose the day of your birth from the links below. The original poem Monday's Child, was given to us by A. E. Bray:

• Monday - Fair of Face
• Tuesday - Full of Grace
• Wednesday - Full of Woe
• Thursday - Far to Go
• Friday - Loving and Giving
• Saturday - Works Hard for a Living
• Sabbath Day -Bonny, Blithe, Good, and Gay
