Twelve Days of Christmas -- A Logic Problem
Two brothers were Christmas shopping together for their children. (Each had one child.) They decided to buy 11 small gifts and one major gift and do a "Twelve Days of Christmas" celebration, giving each child one small gift to open each day leading up to Christmas, saving the major gift for Christmas morning. The brothers bought the same 11 small gifts, but they were given to the two children on different days, with the exception of the gum, which both children received on the sixth day. From the information provided, can you determine what each child received on the 11 days preceding Christmas?
