Groundhog Day Quick Facts (for kids)
When is it?
Groundhog Day is a fun February 2 tradition that’s all about a famous groundhog named Punxsutawney Phil and his weather prediction.
What is the meaning of the shadow for the groundhog?
If the groundhog sees his shadow, it’s said we’ll have six more weeks of winter. If he doesn’t see his shadow, it means an early spring may be on the way.
