is it a good idea to get thermals for the kids? going to france in February for first ski trip with children. don't want them to be cold on the slopes.

Definitely long johns or girls could wear tights. M and S , Mothercare, Millets, H and M and Tchibo sometimes have them as well as sports shops like Snow and Rock

Yes. Definately. Don't whatever you do send them out with cotton underclothing: they'll sweat, it gets wet, and then it will get cold, and then they'll be miserable (apart from it being potentially dangerous).

Most decent outdoor shops will have a selection - best value by far IMO are Decathlon if you've one near.

These people are also good - especially if you are nearby or fancy a day out - but not cheap.

Decathlon do them if you are looking not to spend too much.
