Snow Sleds:
Frequently Asked Questions


What is the youngest age that my child should be safe riding a snow sled?

At age four your child is very agile and able to make decisions with the guidance of a parent. Riding a snow sled is something no child should do without parental supervision and age four is definitely the youngest. Make sure the child is bundled up enough to withstand the temperatures conducive to snow sledding. With small children it is especially important to stay away from hills with lots of trees or with dangers at the bottom, such as fire hydrants or fences.
