How to Remember Days in Each Month
The classic rhyme: "Thirty days hath September, April, June, and November. All the rest have thirty-one, except February alone, which has twenty-eight days clear, and twenty-nine in each leap year."
Knuckle method: Make a fist. Each knuckle and valley represents a month. Knuckles = 31 days. Valleys = 30 days (except February). Start with your left index finger knuckle = January (31).
