April now, is it? Then the next thing that's going to happen is that everyone except Harry goes home for Easter (Easter Sunday was 19 April in 1992, and they'll probably take most of the holiday before it rather than after it since it's so late that year) and Harry's parents come to visit him. That should be interesting. I hope he's told them he's not allowed to leave Hogwarts.
I didn't think it was possible for muggles to enter Hogwarts. Isn't it invisible to them?
Typically, yes, even Hogsmeade is invisible to them. But I'm sure that there are ways to invite specific individuals (although I can't recall that it was ever done in the books).
In canon, there was no Easter/Spring break mentioned, merely Christmas and Summer. It's a shame, because the interaction between Harry and his parents while his parents visit Hogwarts would be amazing. I can't wait for summer vacation to come.
Edit: Apparently I stand corrected. Good to know.
It's mentioned, just not dwelled on. It's mentioned once in passing in each of the first two books:
Sorceror's Stone:
Chamber of Secrets:
And so on. It's just that I don't think anything interesting ever happens during them.
