Taking your little ones on a family ski holiday is great fun, especially when it’s all organised for you. With decades of experience in ski holidays, Mark Warner takes the stress out of holidaying and share tips on skiing with children. Read on to find out more...

Mark Warner, the ski specialists...

 1- Consider taking children to an indoor snow centre for a lesson prior to your holiday – they will progress much faster if they have some idea of the basics, will be less apprehensive and will benefit from familiarity with putting on and wearing ski boots and skis. 2- For those children not quite old enough to ski, ensure they enjoy great quality childcare. They might not be old enough to join in, but they can still have fun both indoors and out with Mark Warner’s highly qualified crèche staff and it means you spend less time worrying, and more time perfecting those parallel turns.  3- Book ski lessons with instructors who are either native English speakers or fluent in English. This means there will be no language barrier for your little ones and they’ll be pros in no time. 4- Pick a resort close to the slopes. Life is much easier when you don’t have to walk for ages in ski boots, carrying skis and poles too. A smooth transition onto the snow creates the perfect holiday.  5- Make sure the family dresses warmly! It’s always better to wear lots of breathable layers that you can take off if you get too hot, rather than vice versa. Nothing beats blue skies in the mountains, but don’t let it deceive you- it’s still chilly! The snow is magical for all ages whether skiing, building snowmen or sledging! Relax and let Mark Warner create the perfect trip by organising your flights, resort transfers, accommodation on a chalet board basis, evening childcare as well as lessons equipment and daytime crèche.
