Leap Day Frog

For Leap Day, we made an origami leaping frog by following the directions here http://www.cutoutandkeep.net/projects/origami_frogs



He really leaps! (well...hops a little)


We also talked about how an Earth year is actually 365.2425 days, so every four years we add a day to make up for the extra quarter days. There is a free BrainPop.com video to watch about Leap Years here: http://www.brainpop.com/socialstudies/geography/leapyear/


You can watch our lil frog in action.
