Leap year happens mostly every four years and it is because of some mathematical madness most of us never even think about it. It's a correction to counter the fact that Earth's orbit isn't precisely 365 days a year. The trip takes about six hours longer than that, NASA says. The reasoning behind it is a little complicated. For example, most people believe that leap year occurs once every four years, but that’s not always the case. If you are a mad scientist you can figure it out.
There are many traditions surrounding the day of leap day but however you want to celebrate
Don't feed the big frog. |
Jump to it!
(This poem works once every 1,461 days)
Jump and prance!
Dance and sing!
Hop and caper!
Spring for spring!
Frolic and bound!
Vault and cheer!
It’s 29th February –
This leap year!
