The words of the old
Rhyme, 'Wash on
Monday...' reflect
the English
tradition of washing
clothes on a Monday.
This tradition was
taken to America
when the women of
the Mayflower came
ashore on Monday,
November 13, 1620
and the first thing
they did was the
washing.
Wash on Monday
Nursery Rhyme lyrics, origins and history
Wash on
Monday,
Iron on Tuesday,
Bake on Wednesday,
Brew on Thursday,
Churn on Friday,
Mend on Saturday,
Go to meeting on Sunday.
