Search engine giant Google is celebrating the leap year date  with an animated doodle.

This is further illustrated with Google Doodle's home page saying, "We HOP you have a good one—Happy Leap Day!."

February 29, also known as leap day or leap year day, is a date added to most years that are divisible by 4, such as 2016, 2020, and 2024.

A leap day is added in various solar calendars (calendars based on the Earth's revolution around the Sun), including the Gregorian calendar standard in most of the world.
