Ski Games for Kids

Imagine your perfect family ski vacation. It’s all smiles and blue skies and happy kids gliding safely on snow, right?

Now let’s face reality. One child is sliding out of control down the hill while the other is whining that they don’t want to ski anymore. How do you get them to that happy place with smiles and blue skies?

Through play.

You’ve taught the basics. You’ve done the lessons. Now what?

As a parent, you’ll likely ski alongside your child more than any instructor or coach ever will. How do you help them have fun while improving their skiing?

By using ski games!

We are three ski moms with 35 years combined experience teaching skiing privately and professionally. We know the learn-to-ski process can be daunting. That’s why we designed this course with simple tips, games and activities to engage children in learning ski skills.
