My husband and I met while skiing, and have continued to enjoy ski vacations with our children since they were born. In fact, our oldest son, now 22, visited his first ski area nursery when he was just one month old. Most of those published best buys are limited offers. When planning a ski vacation, one of the biggest decisions families need to make is whether to choose a European or American ski resort. There are advantages and disadvantages to both.
Skiing can be a wonderful family activity.
For first time skiers, plan to go for at least three days, if not more. The learning curve usually lasts a few days, and if you only go for a day or two, there may be some frustration for both you and your kids. There are many resorts to choose from when deciding where to take your family on a skiing vacation. Choosing a resort where children are welcome and encouraged to take part in the sport will help ensure everyone has a good time.
