*Special Mon/Tue agenda/prorated fees for N. Stonington students!
Our agenda will include:
Riddle Running Day! It's a mystery! And so much FUN! Children, in groups, get a riddle- which leads them to their next activity/learning center, which in turn gets them another riddle leading them to the next activity & so on- for the entire day! With prizes for quickest, most accurately completed, and best perseverance on our day of tasks, it's a lot of learning, quick-thinking, running & fresh air.
Celebrate the Morgan Horse Day! Spend it with Laurelledge Moonbeam, VHF Tiffany & MPA Legacy Lives On............."Wait, who?"....................... You know and love these show horses- but probably only by their barn names- Blue, Tiffany & Nine! Here we will spend the day with these beautiful Morgan Horses and learn all about them: from markings, to their conformation and traits & what makes the Morgan Horse a wonderful part of our lesson program here. We will compare them with horses of other breeds and types we also have here on the farm & discuss their suitabilities based on how they've evolved & what they've been designed for over centuries.
*Horse Health Day! A visit from the vet & the blacksmith occupy much of our day with tours of their respective offices on wheels and Q & A sessions with live demonstrations. We'll see how a shoe it custom fit and find out how to take a horses vital signs and much, much more.
*Day of the week subject to change based on the unfortunate event the vet/blacksmith has an emergency elsewhere.
Games Day! Everyone's favorite! Learning is FUN! Mounted & unmounted games for all abilities and ages challenge our skills, and promote teamwork. We'll even play a horse themed board game at lunch! Our American Saddlebred horses want in on the action so what better a day than games day to learn about horse shows & competitions?
Please call today to reserve your spot as enrollment is limited. We are happy to answer any questions or accomodate special requests. Make horses part of your day today, & make it a great one!
