[quote=Anonymous]It depends on set up, and where they walk and the hill. Is it a distance they walk daily and know? Is the hill in their elementary school where they are familiar with the surrounding and will be familiar with people cause it would be a lot of neighbors and kids who go to this school? Do they cross a busy street? Do they have a phone or watch to call in an emergency? 0.75 miles is not a short distance to walk in snow with sleds. Our closest hill involved crossing a busy street and on one side kids sometimes can sled into another much less busy but still a street. So we never left kids at 6 cause wanted to make sure they stop themselves before sledding into the street. When they became familiar and able to stop, we’d still walk them to the hill and then leave them there. But they were all older than 6, probably closer to 9-10. [/quote]
