2024 is a Leap Year, meaning it has one extra day: Thursday, February 29.
If you are — or happen to know — one of the approximately 5 million “leaplings” around the world who were born on Feb. 29, you’ll get to celebrate on the actual day for the first time in four years. If not, you’re still getting a relatively rare bonus day.
We want to know how you’ll be spending it. Please answer one or more of the following questions in the form below. Your answers could be featured in a radio or digital story from NPR’s Morning Edition.
1. If you have a leap day birthday, how and when do you typically celebrate it?
2. How do you plan to celebrate the leap day birthday in your life, whether yours or someone else’s, this year?
3. What else do you have planned for Feb. 29?
In your responses, please include your first and last name, age, location and email address. You may be contacted by an NPR reporter for a follow-up interview.
We will be accepting responses until Feb. 19 at 12 p.m. ET.
