What the birthday feels like

The format is straightforward and staged: children take turns on ponies during a dedicated hour of rides while the group uses the covered picnic space for the broader 2.5-hour party window. The arrangement emphasizes short, supervised rides and a protected area for food and gifts so parents can manage the flow of children in and out of the riding program.
