Own a Pony Day

“Own a Pony Day” at Squirrelwood.

We’re turning childhood dreams into reality with our enchanting “Own a Pony Day” experience. Designed for budding equestrians, this is more than a day; it’s a complete immersion into the world of pony ownership.

What to expect on an Own a Pony Day –

  1. Unleash the Imagination:
    Fuel your child’s imagination as they step into the shoes of a pony owner for a day. From grooming to riding, Feeding to Mucking out, every moment is an adventure waiting to be discovered.
  2. Guided Riding Experience:
    Let your child experience the joy of riding a pony not just once but twice (during a full-day adventure). Enjoying both a lesson in the school and a hack through the park. Our experienced instructors ensure a safe and fun-filled riding experience tailored to their skill level.
  3. Learn the Art of Horse Care:
    It isn’t just about riding though; it’s a holistic experience. Children will dive into the responsibilities of pony ownership, learning essential horse care skills such as grooming and tacking up. As well as how to tell their pony is well, and what different points of the horse are called. They’ll soon be able to tell their withers from their poll and forelock from their fetlock!

Half-Day or Full-Day Adventure: Choose Your Magic!

Half-Day:
Ideal for a taste of the pony owner experience. Your child will enjoy a ride and get hands-on with grooming, making it the perfect introduction to the magical world of ponies.
