I dont have kids but have skied with an 11 year old niece who didnt enjoy ski school - no amount of bribery could persuade her to go back!
However I do think kids get more out of school than being taught by family - the kids know how to push your buttons and know what they can get away with, whereas in school they cant do that. In the resorts you go to do they have a "British" ski school - at least one where the main language is English. That way the kids may be less intimidated by the whole lesson thing if the instructor can converse more easily and put across what they are trying to acheive in a more familiar tongue?? |

My hubby has just bought one of those retractable walking sticks to attach his.
His excuse - lightweight & easy to pack Apparently I can then use it when I get old and infirm. Me thinks he will be skiing on his own this holiday! |

You can be as casual as you like in Banff. It can be pretty cold. I was there over Xmas and some evenings it was -11C - so make sure you've got a hat!! I tend to wear a ski jacket in the evenings - one less thing to pack. Even in the posher hotels they are relaxed about dress code, if in doubt ask the concierge. Not sure about the clubs - my days of partying are long gone :o((( Have a great holiday! |
