your children will have bundles of fun at the esf tignes val claret kids club!

The place where your children become the Kings and Queens of the mountains

skiing for children in a safe and friendly environment
Starting for the very young ones for  2.5 and 3 years old
In small groups, of no more than 6 children, we welcome your child to our KIDS CLUB this winter
At the Kids Club of ESF Tignes Val Claret, your child will be introduced to snow, mountain life and skiing, all in a friendly, safe and fun environment. 

With our team of qualified ESF instructors, your child will be greeted and settled in to the Kids Club where they will immediately meet other children and build friendships. After a yoga style warm up with our instructors, your child will meet Piou Piou himself. Piou Piou is the talisman character of the ESF and along with his friends, your child will be able to learn through fun, games and subliminal teaching techniques. 

While your child is playing in the snow and moving around to meet Piou Piou's friends, they will be getting used to wearing skis, ski boots and thick warm clothes. Everything your child does not normally do at home in the UK!

Piou Piou's friends are Blanchot (the white rabbit), Sifflote (the marmot) and Garolou (the wolf). Once your child has learned the process of skiing, they will meet Ourson (the teddybear).

After a week at our Kids Club all children are presented with a medal that signifies progression.

Please ensure your child is toilet trained before joining the Kids Club
Wearing a helmet is highly recommended

AN ESF GUEST TOLD US...
'I registered my 3 year old boy at Kid's Club and at first he wasn't really confident The instructors of ESF were able to introduce him to skiing by playing games  He now loves skiing and I can't wait to bring him back to ESF'.

Questions / ANSWERS
What happens to my child if the weather turns and it is not nice to be outside?
In case of inclement weather conditions that forces us to take the children indoors,  a multitude of activities are offered to children. We have a games room and a video room (A rest room will also allow them to rest).
How do I dress my child?
Mainly in warm clothes. A warm ski jacket, salopettes or waterproof trousers/suit, Mittens rather than gloves for easy access, a mask of sunglasses in sunny days. Please apply suntan on sunny days pre lesson. Include suntan cream in bag to apply later again in the day.Wearing a helmet is recommended.
Is a lift pass for my child necessary?
At the Kids Club your child will use the magic carpet and the mini slopes before requiring any pass. 
As soon as the level reaches a certain standard we will move your child to slopes that use the free ski lifts offered by the Tignes resort. 
If and when your child reaches the level required to ski on the bigger main slopes, your ESF instructor will make you aware of the lift pass required.
Are the ESF instructors qualified to teach children?
Of course. Each instructor trains for many years before they can teach skiing. One of the first tests they must validate is to teach younger people how to ski. Our instructors are therefore qualified to supervise young children.
Will my child get a medal?
Yes! Your child will be assessed by our ESF instructors and awarded a medal on the point of progression achieved at the end of the week.  
Medals are awarded every Friday 15 minutes before the end of your child's class.
Does my child need to bring a snack?
If you can put a cereal bar in the pocket it will help if your child gets hungry.
