In Vermont, Stowe Resort will host its 70th Annual Sunrise Service on April 5. Guests can celebrate Easter morning with a truly special nondenominational sunrise service on top of Vermont's highest peak, co-hosted with the Stowe Community Church. This long-standing tradition is open to all.
Attendees will discover a wide selection of handmade items crafted by more than 60 local makers. Elegant jewelry, unique ceramics, apparel, leather goods, and plants fill the stalls and keep the experience fresh and inspiring. Live music adds to the energy as you enjoy food and drinks in a relaxed sip-and-stroll format.
Visiting Vermont in the winter is like stepping into a classic children's book. Chimneys puff delicate swirls of smoke over cozy villages, covered bridges cross icy creeks, and kids in brightly colored snowsuits careen down sledding hills. The temperature is brisk, snow is falling, and everyone's a little more jolly. And why shouldn't they be? Winter in the Green Mountain State is as fun as it is beautiful.
The Colosseum and Roman Forum are iconic for a reason: historic and stunning, they ignite imaginations with tales of gladiators brought alive by expert guides who use storytelling and games to engage little ones. Make sure to step inside the Vatican's Sistine Chapel, which is a treasure trove of art and architecture, and even has activity booklets for kids. The ancient city of Ostia Antica is a can't-miss site.
