Monday's Child is a popular nursery rhyme that is used to predict a child's personality traits based on the day of the week they were born. According to the rhyme, a child born on a Monday is said to be fair of face. This means that they are likely to be attractive and have a pleasant appearance.
The origins of Monday's Child can be traced back to an old English poem that was first recorded in the 19th century. The rhyme goes as follows:
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.
While Monday's Child is said to be fair of face, each day of the week is associated with different personality traits. 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, and Sunday's child is bonny and blithe and good and gay.
While the nursery rhyme is just a fun way to predict a child's personality traits, many people believe that there is some truth to the predictions. If you were born on a Monday, do you think the rhyme accurately describes your personality?
