MOMMY, ME, AND MY PONY

El Camino Ranch offers a Mommy, Me and my Pony class for children 3 years and older with their parents. It is never to early to set the foundation for a lifelong devotion to horses. Although riding the horse may be a few years away, this program gives the student an opportunity to learn patience, responsibility and self confidence. Our instructors keep a watchful eye on the students at all times to promote a safe environment where learning can begin. The fee includes a thirty minute class where the children will learn to groom and care for the Miniature horses and the ponies. If time permits there will be a horse story book read by the instructor, a horse video may be watched, or tour of the ranch to explore all the animals may be given. A child at this age can have so much fun interacting with the animals, and they learn early on to be comfortable and around horses.
