Thanks to all for the additional photos and video, which I enjoyed watching. Verbier looked quite magical, reminds me of my own holiday in the Arctic Circle last month. (These sorts of places are indeed magical and make a great and interesting holiday.) I particularly liked the bit towards the end when Vincent started to run towards the trees but fell over. Very cute.

Really cute gif of Vincent!
I kinda think Vincent decided to falldown and roll over the snow 
I like the photo of C&I skiing together front, and M&F sledding back with twins and Christian showing Isabella how to ski! Parents must be so proud of their older children.All 6 are really enjoying the snow!

Thanks for the extra links.
I love how natural the children are with the photographers around. The fab four are all so sweet.

Summary of article in Billed Bladet #8, 2014.
Written by our woman in Switzerland, Marianne Singer.
M&F and children arrived at the photoshoot at the children's slope in a minibus.
Christian helped dad carry the skis while Bella helped mother dragging the twins in their tobaccan/bosleigh/whatever. (*) And Vincent started by charming the pants of the press by beaming at them: "Hi".
After a pit of posing at as a group, mom and dad rode down the slope on sleighs with the twins. Vincent with an expression of sheer joy in his face, while Josephine perhaps thought it was a little bit too dangerous. But rolling around in the snow was a hoot, especially if mother tickle you.
In the meantime Bella and Christian were skiing on their own. Isabella without ski poles, while Christian showed of by running backwards and do impressive turns.
Isabella was asked who is the best skier and she said: "Everybody in the family", but then she pointed at her older brother.
While that happened, the photo-dog Apollo, showed up on the scene. Apollo a kind Skt. Bernhard, complete with schnapps-barrel and all posed with the family. However Christian was asked to remove his skis, because the dog for whatever reason don't like skis.
Josephine petted the dog, to which Mary commented: "Oh, how sweet he is. - They are almost the same size".
Mary told about the holiday so far: "I have been skiing but also done a lot of tobaccaning".
As the whether the twins have started ski-school, she answered: "No, they haven't. They can wait a year more".
A journalist observed about Vincent: "He's a brave little boy". Mary agreed: "Yes, he's full of spunk".
Isabelle also tried the sleigh on her own, using her tounge to keep a straight course - and fell off... Okay, on again.
Frederik was observed giving Vincent a kiss on the cheek right after the family arrived.
Isabella is still being called Bella by both mom and dad.
When it was timed to leaved, Bella voiced a protest: "No, I wanna ski some more".
Josephine cling a lot to her mother.
Mary's sunglasses were from Chanel, with a pearl on the frame.
Bella wore a jacket from North Face and pants from Peak Performance.
(*) Help English speakers. What's the proper name for the thingies the twins rode? Bobsleigh? Sleigh? Sledge?

We call them toboggans or sleds in Canada

Thanks, tundra. 
You should know in Canada.
Sled it is then (easier to remember how to spell).
Perhaps you or someone else can help a little more, please?
Just to make sure.
In DK this is a (traditional) kælk, and in English?
http://www.je-bolegetoj.dk/images/pr...5ecd05ae4b.jpg
This is a kane, and in English?
http://www.guldager-noergaard.dk/photogallery/kane4.jpg
This is a bobslæde or just slæde, and in English slede or tobaggan, right?
http://fdynmedia.thg.dk/img/30303_0_m_800_1200.jpg
And to top things, this is a hundeslæde, and in English a dogsled?

Sorry if this seems slightly off topic, but it really helps to know when translating.
I cannot help posting this pic of Bella going down the slope on her sled: https://app.box.com/s/gcxiigwpqxbe7eirc8ma
It's pretty high on the cute-scale.

Muhler you are so generous in sharing your information. I'll do my best.
The kaelk would be called either a sled or a toboggan
The Kane is a sleigh
you are correct on the third one - it would be called either a sled or a toboggan
Yes the 4th one would be called a dogsled.

Thanks Carrief & Polyesco
I truly appreciate it.
I have to post this pic of an absolutely fearless Vincent with his dad: https://app.box.com/s/xd7jft1520lwr5844f8h
The expression on Vincent's face is gold!

I think all 4 kids are active and fearless just like their parents, although Josephine seems more cautious
Isabella in these pictures is just a mini-Frederik.
While Josephine is a mini-Mary

Funny nice pics of Mary playing in the snow with Vincent and Josephine
That was in another life, Frederik.

I saw somewhere on Facebook that the Crown Prince family's annual winter photo session this year will take place on Sunday 8th February at 10am.
Don't know whether it's correct, though.
