12 Days of Christmas in Alaska


"The Twelve Days of Christmas in Alaska" typically refers to popular regional parodies of the classic holiday song or the children's companion book Alaska's 12 Days of Summer. These festive Alaskan adaptations swap traditional English lyrics for iconic northern wildlife and winter wilderness themes.

AN ALASKAN CHRISTMAS

Two Jumping Orcas
Three Inuit Totems
Four Hiding Halibut
Five Golden 3pm Sunsets
Six Denali Peaks Discerning
Seven Fishing Boats a-Rocking
Eight Moose a-Munching
Nine Northern Lights Dancing
Ten Fur Rondy Racers Running
Eleven Reindeer Sightings
Twelve Glaciers Crawling
    Artists: David Price


North Star Elementry in Kodiak. Here are the lyrics:

On the first day of Christmas, my true love gave to me...
    A Ptarmigan in a Spruce Tree
    Two Halibut
    Three Tanner Crabs
    Four Bald Eagles
    Five Fishermen
    Six Salmon Jumping
    Seven Bears A-Fishing
    Eight Seals A-Barking
    Nine Deer A-Leaping
    Ten Otters Swimming
    Eleven Magpies Singing
    Twelve Puffins Flying

An Alaskan-themed variation of the traditional holiday song, "The Twelve Days of Christmas.

"On the first day of Christmas my true love gave to me:
1 caribou in a deep freeze;
2 ptarmigan;
3 spruce hens;
4 beluga whales;
5 mal-a-mutes;
6 bears a-fishing;
7 seals a-barking;
8 moose a-running;
9 Cheechakoes grabbing;
10 sourdoughs panning;
11 reindeer prancing;
12 salmon jumping.
