Over a brisk, two-hour span children move through a few concentrated stations: craft time produces a keepsake, a brief lesson introduces horse basics, story time calms the group, and supervised pony rides bookend the experience—delivering a rhythm that’s part classroom, part petting-zoo, and all tailored to young participants.
