Groundhog Day fun with the kids

THE LONG AND SHORT OF IT:
All eyes will be on Ms. G when the groundhog tells us if we can get our flip-flops ready. After the prognostication at Groundhog Day , kids warm up with hot chocolate, a story, crafts, and snacks. Starting at 11:30 a.m., activities include learning how animals stay warm in winter.
Feb. 2 at 9:30 a.m. Free (9:30 a.m. forecast and 10 a.m. ‘‘Critters and Crafts’’); activities starting at 11:30 a.m. are $7, $5 ages 2-12. Drumlin Farm Wildlife Sanctuary, 208 South Great Road, Lincoln. 781-259-2200. www.massaudubon.org [JUNE WULFF]
