Question about ING interest monthly

[Lorix2]

One month my kids earned .51 and the next .48 on a balance that did not decrease. I did not deposit to their accounts last month, so the balance hadn't changed. The interest has gone up 2x now, so why is that?

Has anyone else noticed this?

We've had ours less than a month, so I have nothing to compare it to.

Could it be the difference in interest has to do with a shorter month?

I think what to previous poster said is correct if you are comparing January with 31 days vs February with only 28 days I think that would be the difference between the two amounts.

That could be, I forgot it was compounded daily

Thanks
