Sure, you've heard of "Kids Ski Free," the longtime ski area promotion designed to get families on the slopes by offering a free children's lift ticket with the purchase of an adult lift ticket. But Taos Ski Valley is going about things a little differently by offering parents a chance to "Ski Kid Free" this winter.

Through a promotion with New Mexico True, Ski Taos has packaged ski and snowboard lessons in their newly redesigned Children's Center to make it easier than ever for mom and dad to have some quality time on the mountain. The Ski Kid Free promotion has already gotten pickup in US News and Yahoo Travel, bringing great exposure to the children's center and Ski Taos. Read more about Ski Kid Free here.
