Leap Year


Slim pickings around the web when it comes to interesting leap year resources. Here is the best of what I found:

1) Brain Pop features another great animated guide for kids. Check it out here.

2) Brush up on the whose and whats of leap year, so you are ready to explain just why February gains and looses that day. Here’s a pretty comprehensive overview.

3) Leap year is not the best occasion for e-cards, but the final line on this one is kind of clever. It reads “Do something EXTRAordinary with this EXTRA day”. Send it to a little one from here.

4) Embrace the leap year frog theme, by making your own paper pond full of leaping creatures. Instructions for origami frogs can be found here or here.

5) If the leap year spirit really has a hold on you, Wilton’s site features a how-to on making a lucky leap frog cake that serves 50! Check it out here.
