The dream of every Equestrian Adventuress who has children, is to one day trail ride or go on longer horse treks with their son or daughter. But many are not sure about how to introduce their kids to horses in the first place. When is the best time, what about riding lessons and how to foster passion and love for the horse in our children? Maybe a non-riding spouse needs to be convinced and what about the risks involved? In today’s podcast episode we are addressing all these questions and give you a couple of tips how to make horse riding fun for your child.
