| From: | To: |
A half past birthday is exactly six months after your actual birthday. It's a fun way to celebrate being "halfway" to your next birthday, especially popular among children.
The calculator uses a simple date calculation:
The calculation accounts for different month lengths and automatically adjusts for leap years when February is involved.

Q2: Why calculate half birthdays?
A: They're useful for school cutoffs, sports team eligibility, and fun celebrations halfway between birthdays.

Q4: Do half birthdays have any legal significance?
A: Generally no, though some school districts use them for enrollment cutoffs when a child is close to the age requirement.
Q5: Can I calculate quarter birthdays too?
A: Yes, you could calculate quarter birthdays by adding 3 months instead of 6.
