Like all other vertebrates, frogs have no bone to support the skin of the belly.
Also they absorb water directly through the skin on their belly, which might also be another cause for the softness.
The softness of the belly makes them lighter and facilitates terrestrial landing and enables rapid repetition of swimming and jumping cycles.
Soft belly also assists in better predator avoidance and foraging.
The soft hairs on the surface help in easy gliding through the water.
The tiny pores on the skin of the belly are suited to help the frog breathe properly.
