re: kindergarden

My daughter (6) loved it. They really do keep them busy. We dropped her off at 9 ish and went skiing we collected her at about 4 but they can stay longer.

A couple of times we saw them at Malina and they were having a ball skiing and sledging.

She did complain about the food though but then again she always does !

re: kindergarden

Only problem was we hired a couple of sledges and took her to the top on the last day and sledged down to the bottom. Now she doesn't want to go back to kindergarten next time.

We would prefer her to learn to ski but she threw her dummy out of the pram the first time she tried ski boots on and I don't think the girls dared try again.

I spoke to Joy (our instructor ) who said that they could give her lessons next time. I don't know how to arrange it though from here any ideas ?

The older one may feel a little to old for Kindergarten at 8 years old. Mine was the oldest when we were there.

Which hotel are you staying at ?

re: kindergarden

I stayed at the Pamporovo at Xmas and have chosen the murgavets for Feb because it is closer to the Kindergarten and nightlife. Have you stayed there before and if so how does it compare to the Pamporovo ?

I know what you mean about splitting them up. Maybe private lessons are the answer !

re: kindergarden

got friendly with a few people who styayed at the murgavets whilst i was their last year i dont think theirs much difference between the two except its more central to everything.might try private tuition this year if the kids get bored in kindergarden.what was it like being out their for xmas with children.???

re: kindergarden

I have heard the same comments before but ... the more the merrier. I think private tuition would be the best option, it would be great to have our daughter skiing with us but I feel that she might still be a bit young. Worth a try though.

Xmas no problem we celebrated it when we returned on the 27th. My son (16) flew over to the UK for a visit so we re-lived xmas with a 2 day delay.

In Pamps we wouldn't really have known it was Xmas day if it hadn't have been for the disgustiing Xmas ...

The sun shone and it was business as usual everywhere.
