Kids at Blue Mountain

Give your child a ski vacation they’ll remember forever by letting them loose in one of our Kids at Blue Mountain winter programs! Whether you’re looking for a day of child care for your toddler or a ski program for a young downhill enthusiast, our Kids’ Camp staff have programmed activities for your youngsters to enjoy all day long.

 

Tips for a Successful Day

  • Prepare your child for his/her day by stressing the fun they will have!
  • The centre opens at 9am and lessons start at 10. Please plan to arrive by 9:30 if your child is booked in the centre for a full day ski program.
  • Bring along extra socks, mitts and additional layering pieces. Goggles and helmets are recommended but not mandatory. Helmets are available to rent for $10 per day.
  • Please label all belongings including skis and boots with your child's name. We are not responsible for lost belongings.
  • We know you love to watch your child's lesson, but please do so from a distance, to make this the best learning experience possible.
  • You may be asked to provide proof of age for your child, so please be prepared to do so.
  • Be prepared to leave your child in the hands of our excellent caregivers. Separation anxieties can be dealt with by them; we will call you if we cannot console your child.
  • The centre is closed between 11:30am and 1:30pm to enable us to tend to the many needs of the children at this time. No visits will be permitted during this time.

The Kids at Blue Centre is located at South Base Lodge and is open daily from 9 am to 4 pm. Space is limited, therefore all programs must be pre-booked and prepaid by calling 705-445-0231 or 1-877-445-0231.
