| We live in NoVa and I'm looking for a place for kids' ski lessons this winter. Child is 6. Thank you! |

Whitetail or liberty
|
| Bryce, Massanutten, White Tail, Liberty . . . . |
| Liberty. There's a ski day camp too. |
| We’ve played hooky to do “group” lessons at liberty and we’ve ended up with private because there were so few people there. |
| Wintergreen |
| Liberty is good because they have a "three person" lesson where the instructor, the parent, and the child ski together. The parent learns how to help kids on and off the lift, etc. |
| Our 6-year-old had a great time at Liberty. Ski school for 2 hours, then hit the slopes. She did the kid classes. |
| Our 6-year-old had a great time at Liberty-- we did the kids ski school. Two hour lesson and then she was ready to hit the slopes. |
| Liberty has full day camps. Very good for that age, though a bit pricey. |
| Consider making it a weekend trip. Snowshoe, 7springs, etc... we did this with my son when he was about that age. All day camp for a couple days did wonders for his ability and enjoyment of the sport. Can easily add lessons back home at one of the closer mountains or just ski with them. |
+1. How my DD started, around 6. Are these still called "mommy and me" lessons? |
Now they are called "Ski With Me". Just as well since I'm a dad and did them with my DS and DD. =) |
