The first snowflake falling from the sky announces also, to the delight of us all, the official opening of the wonderful winter sports season. The physical activities carried out in the immaculate snow are adored by the children dressed in colourful clothes and happy.
Children practicing winter is very beneficial. Both skiing and snowboarding instinctively train children’s equilibrium or balance skills and the way they distribute their body weight during the impact with the snow so as to control their movements. To coordinate their sleigh, children will use a straight body position, orientation in space and direction, while juggling with the speed related to the descent. Balance, grace and attention to maintain posture on ice will be very necessary and required also from children passionate about skating. In the case of ice hockey, children will learn the spirit of competition and will practice skating speed and coordination. Flexibility, self confidence, the feeling of success and many more will be increased in children by practicing winter sports.
Moreover, the children’s state of mind will be excellent! They will make new friends, socialize and become better acquainted with other children sharing the same passion.
A day on the slopes is a source of unspeakable joy for the little ones. The appropriate equipment for such a day will provide unlimited fun for children. The children will not be exposed to even the slightest chance of cold. Equipping starts with a first layer: either a body or a long-sleeved shirt and cotton trousers. Next, there will be the children’s clothes suitable for going out on the slope: either the specially designed for skiing waterproof overalls and jacket, or the ski suit consisting of jacket and pants, or the snowboarding suit. As an integral part of the equipment there is also the hat and the helmet, the waterproof gloves, and the ski boots or snowboard boots.
When it comes to the sled, the options for children’s clothing focus on mobility and high impermeability. When skating, children will rely on warm clothes, but which allow broad and flexible movements. Under the official ice hockey suit, children will wear warm fabric clothes.
Winter time is embraced with great delight by children, and their smile adorns the endless like snow! We wish you enjoy these wonderful moments along with your children, just as they enjoy them.
