Text, Questions & Answers

Every year, on the 2nd of February, we celebrate Groundhog Day. It's a fun day when a cute groundhog named Phil comes out of his burrow. Everyone watches him closely. If Phil sees his shadow due to the sunny weather, he gets scared and runs back into his burrow, which means winter will last six more weeks. But if it's a cloudy day and he doesn’t see his shadow, spring will come early! Isn't that amazing? This fun tradition helps us guess when spring will arrive!
