A few years back I asked Fritz Strobl the same question ~ he said age 3 to 4. You do, however, see many two year olds skiing.
We had my grandson on skis at 2 years old, but just playing. Then this year he started skiing.

There were lots of small children learning to ski in Hemsedal when we were there in 2010 and 2012. They had better technique than me on our 1st holiday!!
I think it's something to do with a low centre of gravity and super flexibility.
Go for it!

I did the same as Dave, put my son on plastic skis to play on at 2. He progressed to Neiderau's ski school at 5 and the big break through came the following year when he was happy to ski any where on the mountain.. Aged 30 he is still loving it with his friends having first over taken me at about 20, up until then I could throw in a quick couple of turns at speed and loose him.

Myself and Mrs Stevie999 are taking our boy for the first time to Morzine next year, he will be 8 then. I cannot wait to see him in action. He's having lessons in the morning and then with us in the afternoon.
That reminds me......does anyone have any recommendations for snack bars on the slopes around here please? TIA.
