Snowbizz with 1 adult and 2 young children

I know this is a bit early but I am looking into a ski holiday for 2011. Am I mad to go with just 2 DSs (4.5 and 7)? The older one loves to ski after his first week this year but the other one hasn't tried it yet.

When I rang Snowbizz they said it would be fine but if any of you have been with them can you say if it is fine or just plain looney?

Just got back from a fabulous holiday with Snowbizz with our 2 boys (2 1/2 and 4 1/2).
The staff are brilliant and the boys got on really well in the creche and both ended up doing toton ski school. Our little one was furious that he had been left in the creche and so we decided to let him try skiing. He loved it!
We will definitely be going back with snowbizz next year.

Thanks for that. We have now booked and really looking forward to it

we had an ace time this year and booked again for next year 2 weeks after we got home.
i did a debrief from my holiday, i will try and find it (it was to remind me of all the little things that would have made my holiday perfect - eg don't put change of clothes in sick bag, have 2 separate bags)

Have done 4 snowbizz hols and highly recommend (although have done none alone with DC).

My top tip is to pack fitted sheets! Sounds barmy but take no space and making bunk beds with flat sheets every day that first year took an age.

Also Crocs are very very handy for the boot room as you keep feet dry and can switch to ski boots very quickly.

Finally, one criticism of snowbizz is that you get no supplies in apartment and supermarket can be sparse (or closed) so try to make sure you have essentials for first night and first breakfast if you aren't going for half board option.
