About This Practice

A year has twelve months, but not all months are equal: big months hold 31 days, small months 30, and February is the special one — 28 days in a common year, 29 in a leap year. Tap each month card to reveal its days, then toggle the leap year and watch February grow by a day.

Tap through the twelve months to see how many days each has. Big months (31 days) and small months (30) get their own colors, and February is the special one — 28 days, or 29 in a leap year. Toggle the leap year to see it change.
