As spectacular as the holidays are in Westchester and the Hudson Valley, all of the celebrations can take a toll on the family budget. So we've rounded up tons of free activities in January, ranging from live animal programs at the Pound Ridge Library to toddler-friendly nature treks at the Sheldrake Environmental Center, and even a free magic show at the FASNY Museum of Firefighting. January is also the start of the maple-sugaring season in the area, and you can kick it off with a Muscoot Farm backyard sugaring workshop.
