For
some (possibly strange) reason, Frog Jumping Day is celebrated every
May 13th. This holiday is supposed to be connected to the
story that first made Mark Twain a famous writer: “The Celebrated
Jumping Frog of Calaveras County”—but the date doesn't seem to
have anything to do with the story or Twain...Hmm.
This
year, Frog Jumping Day just happens to be the same day as Mother's
Day. Warning: Do NOT give your mother a real-live jumping frog as a Mother's
Day gift!
Play
today!
Here
are some frog games you can play—including a fun version of Leap
Frog.
