Getting Away: Can Snowy Vacations Help Your Child?

Life’s not all fun and games, even for kids. You’ve been one before, and you’ll know that there are times when the solution comes in the form of getting away from it all. Sometimes, all one needs is a bit of distance to see the bigger picture and think about the best course of action. What better way of making a temporary retreat than going on a vacation? Here's how you can help your child solve their problems and recover from them.

Snowy vacations - family enjoying the snow

Find Common Ground

With so many activities that you can do when there is snow, there has to be one that your family can do together. The two of you can take the time to find your kind of activity, whether it’s skiing, snowboarding, or engaging in snowball fights. You don’t even have to play any extreme sport. For example, if you like shopping, you can go and look for a refrigerator magnet together. Or if you’re all into simply being cozy, warm, and a little imaginative, you can tell each other some stories by the cabin fireplace.

Take A Trip To The Alps

Whether your family is into skiing or not, put on some winter clothing and catch the shuttle from Geneva To Val D'Isère, at least to join in on the legendary world-class Après in this charming and authentic village in the Alps. Val d’Isere is part of the Tignes & Val d’Isère region (formerly known as Espace Killy). Nestled in the Alps surrounded by wooden and stone chalets and high-end hotels it is a well-known international resort. Then, you can use the free buses to get around to each of the villages for the amazing view and photo opportunities!

Eat as a Family

If you’re like many families nowadays wherein everyone has a schedule and barely see each other face-to-face, then you might have experienced not eating together often. You might think that it’s just a ritual that you can choose not to do, but you shouldn’t underestimate its impact on promoting positive family relationships. Mealtimes are some of those times when people are free to talk to each other about their day and what’s happening in their lives. If you’re going out for a snowy vacation, then you shouldn’t forget to eat a warm meal together.

 

Have Free Conversations

The main reason why you’re going out into the snow is to provide a setting where you can talk comfortably. After all, conversation plays a significant role in helping people solve problems. Your child’s situation might be serious, but it can also be awkward for them to talk about it with you, and this is one reason why many similar problems aren’t solved as early as they should. Encourage your child to speak by letting them know that you’re open and that you won’t judge them. While you’re doing fun activities, ask them how they are and then slowly and gently bring up the topic. Hear them out before you say anything.

Be Sure To Rest

In the end, there are many reasons to have fun in the snow. Keeping some distance from a problem to be able to look at the big picture can be one of them. Facing challenges left and right can be stressful for a child, so a temporary retreat will help a lot in relieving that stress and set them on the way to healing. Of course, you shouldn’t forget that even if you’re doing all these activities to relax, you should still make time for actual rest. After all, these activities still require energy.
