This article is from the Outdoor Activities for Young Children FAQ, by Gloria Logan glogan@atk.com with numerous contributions by others.
We spent a week at Kirkwood last winter with our 4.5 and 2.9 yo's.
This was the week before the good snows. They allowed us to enroll
both in the ski school because there weren't many people there (only 2
lifts were open). They loved it -- and they learned something. By the
end of 4 days skiing our son was up to intermediate level (and we have
the videos to prove it!). Even the 2.9 was starting to wedge by the
end. The care and attention were great. My only complaint was about
the lunch (included in the price) since they gave them pb&j and chips
every day. But they took lots of breaks during the day. Our daughter
still talks about her instructor Chip. I checked on them about every
hour - but of course there wasn't too much else to do. (They said there
was also a day care center but it wasn't open.) Of course looking up
and seeing your not quite three year old daughter on a ski lift can be
a bit unsettling....
