[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If OP doesn't mind spending the time and money, then why not let the kids try to learn to ski?  They can just attend ski school for a few weeks each year, and of they love it, I'm sure OP can figure out a way for them to ski with an adult babysitter. Or maybe friend's family when they're older.  skiing isn't the easiest to learn well when you're an adult, skiing for a few weekends a year as a kid could help them develop some natural feel for it when they are smaller and less likely to be scared of falling and injuring themselves.

OP, if you don't have the time and money to spend on this, then don't do it.[/quote]

I think ski school is the best way to do it if you don't ski yourself. My kids didn't want to be in ski school all day (well, one of them, anyway), so we started them out where they would have a private lesson together and then we would go out on the mountain with them so they could practice. But you have to be willing to commit to either plan . . . take them often for day or weekend trips, or take them on week-long trips every year where they're on the mountain for days at a time, or do both. If you don't ski yourself, that can get tedious.[/quote]
