Our cross country ski club started yesterday and the snow conditions weren't great in the open field where we held our meeting. The light coating of powder only disguised frozen/ice ruts from snowmobiles so it was a bit like being on a mini-mogul course. But the kids didn't seem to mind because they had a great time playing tag and relay games on their skis.
We played a relay game that required hitting a ball down the course with a small racket. It was a good way to teach the kids to bend their knees.
And although we all did our share of falling down (me included), the hardest part for most of us was getting back up -- so we did a lot of practicing...
