Tignes is a great area to ski - lots to do with the kids. And I agree - Evolution 2 ski school was fab for my boys.

I wouldnt bother, We have had our boys on skis since very young and you have to be prepared for them not to want to go. Dont go anywhere near the ESF and most ski schools wont wont take under 4. They are not strong enough and dont have a good time. I watched my 4 year old in class and had to go and get him as I couldnt bear it. Now they are older they are hanving fun and our eldest (7) can ski reds and the odd black but I dont make them go if they dont want to or if the weather is bad

I'll second Evolution 2 been brill, a lot better than ESF. They even have a full size yeti to give out the medals at the end of the week!
