Want to test your memory? Then sing this Christmas carol that began as a festive memory game.

If you've ever tried to sing "The Twelve Days of Christmas," then you could probably guess that this one tests your memory skills. According to historians, the laundry list of items from the singer's "true love" was designed as a festive memory game. And, as you've probably stumbled over the lyrics, then you know it's challenging to remember how many geese, doves, swans, or hens were delivered to his poor bird-laden love interest.
