Every four years, February grants us an extra day, February 29. Now I don’t get the popularly-held belief that this is truly an “extra day” to do as we wish. Oh, if that were so…! Unfortunately, editors, pets, kids, and the trashmen still expect me to work as if it were any other Friday.

That doesn’t mean, however, that you have to ignore the day altogether. There are plenty of ideas for “Leap Day” around the Web. Here are just a few:

• From “eMoms at Home,” some Leap Day activities and treats
• From “Times Online,” How to Spend a Green Leap Day
• From Scholastic.com, 15 Math and Science activities for Leap Day
• From the Wisconsin State Government site, How to make an origami frog
