kids snowboarding

We will be returning to Borovets for the 3rd time but this year our children would like to snowboard. They are aged 8 and 9 but apparently they do not have snowboarding lessons for children.
Could anybody let me know if there are any boarding lessons available for the younger set.
Thanks

re: kids snowboarding

but also they dont have the hire boards for that height

re: kids snowboarding

I was told it has nothing to do with the age of the child but the shoe size, the boarding boots don't come in small sizes not sure what size they start at but at a guess its the average shoe size of a 13 year old. my daughter is 11 and takes a size 4 shoe and was able to board, at a guess your two will have smaller feet so possibly not be able to board ask the rep when you get their they will look into it for you, thats what we did hope this helps.
