If your kids are into the arts - dancing, music or storytelling - celebrate Leap Day and the rest of this near-end-of-winter weekend by indulging their creative sides. If they adore Green Eggs and Ham, take them to a party celebrating Dr. Seuss' birthday. If your little ones have a jive in their steps, let them dance beneath the disco lights. Or simply tickle their imaginations with a puppet show or concert. This weekend, anything is possible.
