Skiing is an exciting activity for children, and many parents wonder at what age to introduce them to it. On the slopes of Les Crosets-Champéry or Champoussin, we welcome young skiers from an early age with tailored lessons. Here are some tips for getting started.
When to Begin?
In general, children can start skiing as young as age 2 with a parent and from age 3 in lessons, as long as they can follow simple instructions and stand on skis. At this age, the goal is to introduce the basics in a playful way, building their confidence on skis.
Benefits of Skiing for Children
- Motor Skill Development: Skiing helps children develop coordination, balance, and physical strength.
- Enhanced Focus: Learning techniques and listening to the instructor’s guidance strengthen children’s ability to concentrate.
- Self-Confidence: Successfully skiing down a slope, even at a slow speed, gives children a great sense of pride and boosts their self-confidence.
