this is both cute and concerning.

I guess I don't find it too concerning...coming from Colorado and all

It's part of life here!

We did it at that age. I can not tell from the picture, but with ours you just wore your regular boots and there was a metal spring that went around and held your boot in. If you fell your boot popped out. My parents would put a rope around us and pull us around on flat ground. It really is not any more dangerous than a child walking. We did not go down any hills or gain any speed, but we enjoyed being pulled around.

dd has been on skiis and gone to ski school   how else are they supposed to learn? i'm NM and spent my winters in CO - i was on skiis super early.

i'm a snowboarder and dh is a skiier - i can't WAIT to get her on a snowboard, but she'll have to be a bit older for that.

I think it's cute! It's not like the stuck downhill skis on the kid and pushed him down the hill. They're cross country skis and he's on flat surface- and right next to his parents. Less dangerous than sledding

I'm not at all against it... I plan to have DS skiing soon but he's just sooo little. I love this pic though... going to be a great story when he gets older!

He's doing a good job, my son would have kicked them off before the picture was taken.

i think it's great! DD couldn't walk at 11 months though. next winter we're putting her on skiis. i grew up skiing & went to ski schools really young as well. I def want DD to be comfortable on the the mountain at a young age.
