An Easter Egg Hunt on Horseback

A family ranch event for ages 3 to 13.

The whole family is welcome to come enjoy a hours of relaxed fun, riding your own horse or pony around the ranch and doing a family fun craft.  The riding goal for the day for families will be of course… to find Easter eggs!!! Since spring is here and the snow has melted we have a whole new scavenger hunt route to explore that will take you to the chicken coop, the calves, over obstacles and maybe even splashing through the creek!

Horseback Portion:  If you have horse experience, or you and your child have attended a previous HorsePlay session you are welcome to handle and lead your own pony for your child.  Alternatively, one of our handlers will be happy to help you lead.

Easter Craft: After the Little ranchers have finished their ride we will be doing a fun Easter String Art craft with barn wood, yarn and horse hair!  This craft can be made simply for the wee children or we can make it challenging for the older kids!

Details:  All Inclusive cost is $55 per child.
(Schedule 2 hrs to enjoy the ranch, chickens, mini-horses, the bunnies…)
* Adults and babes under 2 are free.

Please bring your child’s helmet.
