Bring snacks and treats. If possible let your child invite a buddy who is also learning to ski. A light-hearted atmosphere and positive encouragement will make the process enjoyable. And if it s fun, they ll probably want to ski again. If your child has practiced the basics, they will probably be ready for skis with a regular Nordic binding by the time they re 5 years old.
Ages do vary from child to child, and often depend on parents participation.
A new binding will get kids into the full swing of skiing. The binding allows more control. Rather than shuffling along, your kids will be able to learn how to kick and glide. As they become more proficient at skiing, these skills can translate into other areas of skiing. Of course, outings will still have to be fun.
