Leap Year

A leap year is a year in which an extra day is added to the Gregorian Calendar which is used by most of the world.

While an ordinary year has 365 days, a leap year has 366 days.

 The extra day, February 29,is added to the Month of February

 In an ordinary year, February has 28 days, but in a leap year, it has 29 days.

The extra 29th day, called a leap day, is the same day of the week as the first day of the month, February 01

Also, in a leap year, the months of  January,April and July all start on the same day of the week.


A leap year comes once every four years
