Monday – Lowell Kids Week is an annual festival of free family fun that takes place during February school vacation.

For some hands-on crafts, try the Free Drop-in Family Days at the Umbrella Community Arts Center in Concord.

Tuesday – The annual Bugs Bunny Film Festival features cartoons with Bugs and all his Looney Tunes friends. 

Our museum pick today is Feb Fest: Lights, Camera, Science! at the MIT Museum in Cambridge's Central Square.

Wednesday – The Benkadi Drum and Dance group performs traditional rhythms and movement from the countries of Mali and Guinea.

To get the kids outside, the Snowshoe on the Story Trail activity is a great option.

Thursday – The pinktastic Pinkalicious: The Musical features everyone’s favorite pink princess, Pinkalicious.

For a free and fun alternative, bring the kids to the Chinese New Year Lantern Art Workshop at the Hyde Park Branch of the Boston Public Library.

Friday – Kids enjoy free admission at the MFA all week, and can take part in art-making activities, story telling, family tours, and more as part of the MFA's Vacation Week Activities.

In performances, the younger set will appreciate the Rolie Polie Guacamole Family Concert in Watertown.
