Memory Trick

To remember how many days are in each month, you can use a classic knuckle-counting trick: 

1. Make a fist and use your knuckles to count.
2. The "knuckles" (raised points) represent months with 31 days.
3. The "valleys" (spaces between knuckles) represent months with 30 days or fewer (e.g., February)
