According to North American folklore, on February 2nd, Groundhog Day, Punxsutawney Phil comes out of his burrow to predict the upcoming weather. If the groundhog comes out of his burrow on a cloudy day, he will leave the burrow signaling that spring is almost here. But if he sees his shadow and retreats back into his burrow, the legend says we can expect six more weeks of winter weather. Despite a mostly cloudy day in the Northeast, Phil saw his shadow this year so it looks like winter will keep dragging on. Read on to learn everything you need to know to discuss and celebrate Groundhog Day with your little ones.
