Hi vetjames. I’m an avid skier but never found a good affordable resort option in Europe. What we have been doing, since the kids were 18 months old, is to pick a good hotel in the Alta Badia area (in Italy), as their ski school is set to also offer kindergarten from the age of 6 months.
You bring the kids to the school (beside the cabin or a few minutes walking) at 9 am and you pick them up at 4:30 pm.
When the kids reach the age of 3, they can start the ski course. You bring them to the kindergarten at 9 am and then the teacher will take care of them all day. At 9:30 they walk to the school slope, they do the course 10-12:45 and then they bring them back to the kindergarten at 12:45 to have some lunch. in the afternoon they play indoors or outdoors (in a dedicated supervised space of course)
We found a small amazing aparthotel with an incredible spa in La Villa and we have have been there every year since we discovered it. When the kids will have to learn well to ski we will explore other areas and they will ski with us.
The beauty of the Alta Badia ski resort is that it is connected to the Dolomites Super Ski. If you are not a beginner and you don’t need to ski twice on the same slope during the week if you don’t want.
