Ages of kids 5,3; I'd like them to learn skiiing in a group of similar ages. Prefered location would be an all-inclusive resort (similar to Club-Med and Club Valtur in Europe)

I have no idea if an all inclusive resort exists in the US, they all might have some sort of options that will make them all inclusive but I'm not sure. Anyway my top 4 for family oriented ski resorts would be:
1. Winter Park Colorado
2. Cooper Mountain Colorado
3. Heavenly Valley Ski Resort California
4. Park City Utah
I'm sure others will disagree but that is my selection and I'm sticking with it!

I learned how to board at the age of five st Brighton. Which is connected to Solitude whoch also has a great program. There is a small villege which is used to house people im not sure bout those rates. Last time i checked it was all-inclusive $120-$150. Its not really a resort. You are in a canyon about a mile high off sea level. Its quiet and they do have some night skiing avail able.
Both these mountains are right here in UTAH

Steamboat, Colorado is renowned for being a family resort. There are not as many expert (steep) slopes as Summit County and surrounding resorts, which makes it fun for the little guys. If you get a chance to break away from them, and want a little more challenging terrain, you can head up the Morningside chair and hit the gates. It is also world renowned for it's "champagne powder", which has 70% less moisture than typical colorado resorts. It is the fluffiest of the fluffy! There are also great tree runs right off of the main trails, they are Aspen's so they're nice and spread out.

Copper Mountain, CO used to have a Club Med on site, but I'm not sure if it's there any more or not. Most resorts have excellent kid programs. Check out Steamboat, Brighton (mentioned earlier...kids <10 ski free, but not if they're going to be in a program), Keystone, or Copper Mtn.

you want to be a touch better particular about your potential set to get a lifelike answer...the way they have path score platforms set up to categorise issues, it really is thoroughly as a lot as each and each human being mountain. So a black in Michigan is somewhat a blue at some places contained in the rockies. That being stated, attempt iciness Park/Mary Jane in CO. it really is a fairly effortless holiday from DIA to there and they have good terrain for each man or woman and it really is distinctly kin orientated. or only do somewhat hurricane monitoring and attempt to e book on the finest minute everywhere the snows falling. And some thing in SLC or Summitt County, CO has different hotels very interior of sight. i might want to respond to so significantly better suited if I knew your fairly potential set and how lengthy you've been snowboarding.
