In Ferrisburgh, Dakin Farm celebrates syrup with Sugar-on-Snow parties on Saturday and Sunday featuring pancake breakfasts, sap-boiling demos and live music.
On Saturday, family fun days in Montpelier, Morrisville and St. Johnsbury offer up kids' entertainment, crafts, activities and more.
In Hanover, N.H., Center City Ballet performs the classic fairytale Cinderella as part of the HopStop Family Series, a monthly Saturday morning program.
At the Fletcher Free Library in Burlington, the Irish Heritage Festival highlights Celtic culture with traditional tales, crafts and a musical instrument "petting zoo" on Saturday morning.
Shelburne Museum celebrates the Muppets with sock-puppet-making and a movie screening on Saturday afternoon.
At the Barre Opera House on Sunday afternoon, the Vermont Philharmonic and the Green Mountain Youth Symphony team up for a family concert featuring a narrated performance of Peter and the Wolf.
