April showers bring May Flowers

Here are some cool things to know about the month of April...

• April was the second month in the early Roman calendar, but became the fourth when the ancient Romans started using January as the first month. The Romans called the month Aprilis. It may come from a word meanting 'to open', or it may come from Aphrodite, the Greek name for the goddess of love.
• Small animals that hibernate are usually coming out of their burrows in April. The birds fly back northward or they settle down to have their families. The bees and butterflies begin to gather nectar from the first flowers of the season. In some parts of the world, it's planting time. In other parts, it's the harvest season.
