PRICELESS PONIES CLUB
Week 1:
The first week is a ground lesson teaching safety first. During this first lesson we concentrate on grooming techniques, saddling and bridling. Club members will learn some of the anatomy of the horse as well as parts of the saddle and bridle. We focus more on acquainting the students with the terminology rather than expecting them to memorize it.
Week 2:
Your child will be introduced to TONY the PONY. Tony is a large rocking pony with real stirrups and a working bridle complete with removable bit. This is a safe, fun and unique way to introduce the young child to riding. At the end of this session your child will ride a real pony for a short time.
Week 3:
This is the week that each child will have the opportunity to pet, hold and feed a variety of clean and tame barn yard pals. We will learn some interesting facts about the animals and end this session with a related craft.
Week 4:
Priceless Ponies Club members again get to ride a real pony and will begin to learn the basics of balance and control.
Week 5:
Members will participate in a "Pony Pampering" session where they will work in teams spray painting and decorating a live pony. We end this session with a pony parade held in the Priceless Ponies arena.
Week 6:
This is the last of our sessions. Each child will have a turn riding a pony this week. Be sure to bring your camera as your child will want to show off what they have learned during the previous weeks.
