Families With Children

Travelling With Kids - Ski Holiday Checklist

Here is a great starting point to ensure that you don’t go away and forget a vital piece of equipment for your child! Obviously you may need more or less of the items listed depending on your own family requirements.

• A bag for your child, labeled with their name (for use at crèche etc)
• Sunglasses/Goggles
• A snowsuit which is both wind and shower proof (separates are recommended)
• Clothes to layer under suits (particularly vests, tights, t shirts)
• Ski helmet (or hire at resort)
• A warm hat (not wool)
• Ski gloves (not wool)
• Loop-stitch ski socks
• Suitable snow boots
• Nappies and nappy sacs
• Baby wipes and/or cotton wool
• Barrier cream (eg Sudocream)
• A good moisturiser
• A swimsuit/aqua nappies (if your resort has a pool)
• Bottles/feeder cups
• Formula milk (most are available at resorts but if your child has a specific sort it is best to bring some along from home or at least check with the resort to see if it is available)
• Pushchair
• Comforters and toys your child is fond of
• Sun cream of at least factor 25

You might want to check to see if your chosen accommodation provides the following before booking. Thankfully, most resorts do provide these.

• Bottle sterilising facilities
