We are a family that loves skiing and we decided to share a gift of the mountains with our kids!
This video is about Adia's skiing progression from the age of 1 year old, when she was just a toddler to 5 years old!
As a dad, it is my job to be there for kids and guide them through the challenges, and I just love how skiing is something that we can do together as a family!

So true. I started my son on skis at 1 year old. We have been on the snow for 32 years!!!!! When he was 10 we started snowboarding. Haven't looked back. You are 100% right!!! I am 71 now and we still enjoy this sport together.

Hi, your all going to have an awesome season on the mountain this year. Adia will be on the rails etc at bottom of one of the runs. Can't wait to see footage of her, Luca and August.🇬🇧❤️

@dramaqueen6G 3 месяца назад

I have loved watching Adia grow up on skis. She started out with a ton of confidence and self-awareness, and she's going to carry that with her for her whole life. Girls absolutely rule! A gentle comment, if I may: I think you could lay off the verbal emphasis on "wholesome" a little bit. We don't need to be reminded so often. It's obvious from just watching you all that spending the winter skiing in the gorgeous mountains is good, happy family experience. It's also out of reach for most people. Any activity that a family enjoys together, from outdoor adventures, to dancing in the living room to disco music, can impart the same benefits. I hope you're aware of how fortunate you are. (Said with love from someone who's old enough to be your mother.)

@gregbrechelt2295 3 месяца назад

Hi Eric, I’ve commented on nearly every video since the beginning! For me it’s about how family should work and 95% of the world has lost touch and you are doing a grand job enlightening change. Those of us fortunate enough to have been brought up like your family sit back now and enjoy your family as our own. thank you for the warmth and love you are sharing.

@ThatMountainLife 3 месяца назад

@howierfs5471 5 месяцев назад

Hi guys, I'll never forget the footage and her comments. I am sure in the comming season she will learn more and getting more and more confident in herself. Of course she looks after her big brothers August and Luca to learn from them as well. Wish you all a lot of fun in this season. Take care, stay healthy and enjoy life. CU

@austinado16 5 месяцев назад

Outstanding edit, as always, and it's great to see the journey. You and your wife are doing a fantastic job. Another benefit to the kids is that their brains are learning and mastering the skill of "delayed gratification." Unbelievably important to have a brain that functions like that, as part of it's core programming. You are paving the way for the success of not only this generation, but the ones that will follow.

@KhaelaMenshaK 5 месяцев назад

You guys are all so incredibly wholesome. Glad I found your channel. Today, I went shopping and there was a "very young human being", crying and screaming her lungs out. Somehow I have a feeling that thanks to your awesome parenting this did not really happen with your kids. I can't see how a kid who's learned to navigate a dense forest on skis before turning three years would throw a tantrum because of not getting the chocolate it wants... You guys are amazing.

@ThatMountainLife 5 месяцев назад

Hey Thomas, To be fair, I maintain the belief that tantrums are quite natural and normal. And in many ways, our children’s unregulated emotions often trigger something inside of us to “not like it” or to become uncomfortable….its our job as adults to be a regulated, loving presence during our kids emotional outbursts. I think our culture gets a lot wrong when it comes to emotions and vulnerability. All of this is to say, our kids are human and do have moments where they become emotionally unregulated. (These are moments where logic and reason goes out the window) and it’s in the child’s best interest for us to simply be a safe presence. I do believe that when a child’s needs for rest, connection, and (the appropriate) level of stimulation - we can reduce the amount of times our kids end up losing it. Most kids are tired and overstimulated in our culture. And my parenting philosophy could like best be described as old meets new. I believe in “gentle parenting” practices that allow kids to fully feel their emotions AND I believe in having boundaries and leading kids with a loving spine. I hope that makes sense. A lot of parents also don’t have a broad enough toolbox to navigate their kids big emotions. It’s not their fault.

@ThatMountainLife 5 месяцев назад

Oh, and saying this and executing this are too very different things. 😅

@KhaelaMenshaK 5 месяцев назад

@@ThatMountainLife I didn't want to give the impression that I hated either the kid or the dad! I've got two nephews aged 6 and 4 and I know that there is no reasoning with them sometimes, especially when tired. What I DID mean to say though, is that their are parents who are great at putting the kids in a more stable mood. Since my brother and his wife split up, I can notice a distinct difference in how the two little guys deal with unexpected situations depending on whom they spent their previous days with.

@mojeprice9654 5 месяцев назад

I had a really bad accident involving a child like that - a great skier but with a childish attitude to responsibility. She crashed into me due to a creative maneuver on her side and i ended up with a ruptured disc. We do not give children access to cars going ar rhat speed or motorbikes and they have no business on a mountain like that.

@ThatMountainLife 5 месяцев назад

I’m sorry about your injury. As a ski patroller, I have responded to more collisions involving adults than I have kids. Skiing is a GREAT sport kids. The world would be a better place if adults had to watch out for MORE kids on the slopes. Of course kids need to taught proper educate and ski safely. Accidents do happen, especially at busier resorts - but I can assure you it’s not a “kid” issue.
