Google Doodle: Leap Year 2016

Look at how cute the Google Doodle is for today, 29th of February, or what most people call leap day or leap year. According to our lesson in school, the month of February usually only has 28 days but during leap year, an extra day was added, the 29th. This happens every 4 years according to mum. It would both be awesome + a bummer to celebrate your birthday on the 29th, don’t you think?

In this fun doodle, the bunnies with 28 and 1 in their bodies made way so bunny 29 can hop right in! Yes, it is one of those animated Google Doodle + I’ll suggest you check it out if you haven’t already, a great way to celebrate the leap day!  :Approve:

The 35 kids with the best pictures will win four tickets each to the screening party and the chance to have fun as big as the comedy adventure, with the exciting activities that Nickelodeon prepared, in line with the advance screening.

Prior to the showing of the feature length film, kids get to enjoy games inspired by the movie such as Po’s Dumpling Transfer, which is a twist on the classic lemon relay. There’s also the modified version of the newspaper dance in the form of a game called Crane to Victory, among others.

There are a whole lot of other Kung Fu Panda-games, product samplings and mascot appearances in store on the day of the screening, that kids should definitely watch out for!

i got peanutized!

my favorite things, cartoon characters, cartoons

I just recently discovered the awesome + colorful world of Peanuts thanks to the Snoopy and Charlie Brown The Peanut Movie which I have seen a couple dozen times already! I fell in love with Charlie Brown’s colorful world + his awesome friends. It was good that they also launched Happy Meal Peanuts toys in time for the film + even when I was not able to collect all the toys, I am very happy with those that we got in our collection {although if you will be kind enough to send us the Schoeder + Sally toys, it will be most appreciated ^_^}. I will share my Peantus happy Meal Toys

A few days back mum showed me this cool Peanutize Me website, where you can turn yourself into one of those cool Peanuts characters. I chose among the many different options and this is what the Peanut version of me looks like! I love wearing shades + watch so I included that in my Peanut self. I thought he was cool, what do you think? This Peanutize photos can be downloaded as profile picture or a wall paper. We downloaded the profile photo version so we can easily share it here.

Did you make a Peanut version of yourself, too? I wonder how you looked like.
