The game's question
Go at your own pace; the story puts you on the track.
One month stands a little apart in the calendar: it is the shortest of them all. People kept an eye on it to see whether, that year, it would gain an extra day. In an ordinary year, without that special day, how many days does February have?
- 28
- 30
- 31
Need a hint?
Try the old rhyme: ‘Thirty days hath September…’ – and listen for February. Ask your mum or dad if they know anyone born on 29 February.
See the answer
Answer: 28 – and 29 in a leap year, once every four years.
Why this game : A little calendar secret, shared – and a leap-year birthday is often a story waiting to be told.
