Many guests, come out with their families and use a weekend
as a first introduction to skiing for their children.
Parents bring their children in or out of term for a blast
on the slopes. One of our oldest group of clients have,
for a number of years, arranged a Dad's weekend. A simple
but brilliant concept - Dad brings the kids! The party
gets bigger every year. I'm not sure who has more fun
- the dads or the Kids!
The major factors in arranging a happy family ski break
are short transfers and a family friendly environment.
We can arrange family rooms or adjoining to give Mum
and Dad a bit of space. Mixed terrain to suit all abilities
is ideal.
Skiing and tuition
If you do not wish to take the burden of teaching your
children to ski, then an instructor, who can teach skiing
and snowboarding, will make the whole experience fun.
They need to be flexible to stop when attention spans
has worn thin and change the day into snow playing -
the emphasis should always be on fun.
Alternatively, we can arrange child-friendly, ski school
programs as well as nursery and crèche facilities.
Usually these are over a longer period than just a weekend.
In our experience, one of our hand picked Instructors
is the best option to provide the service described
above. Over the years Ski Weekend have gathered a number
of highly regarded female instructors who we think are
fantastic at providing children with the perfect balance
of learning ski in a fun and secure way.
The busy periods are always, Christmas, New Year, Half
term and finally the Easter break. It is essential to
book early, and make sure all the detail is sorted in
advance so you can minimise the stress of the all-evolving
family ski holiday.
