Groundhog day: Phil sees more winter
Boo. My kids, my husband and I had a great time watching Punxsutawney Phil's annual weather report live this morning from Pennsylvania. We weren't as thrilled with his prediction of six more weeks of winter.
In a drawing he made at school yesterday, my son had depicted a hopeful groundhog. That groundhog looked like an optimist. The real one, not so much.
Anyway, you can extend the fun of Groundhog Day with some activities:
--Here are craft ideas and printouts.
--Groundhog Day songs, to the tune of Christmas carols?
--And here's National Geographic's explanation of the history and facts behind Phil's forecast.
