As you know the horse industry has undergone many changes over the last 10-15 years, with an influx of equine assisted learning and equine therapies being introduced.  This is great news for you.  They have paved the way to public knowledge and acceptance that horses are a valuable resource for teaching and healing.  Providing a gateway to this simple program you can offer from your equine business that requires no training, certification or investment. This program works for; riding schools, horse training facilities, breeding yards, equine charities.  Even if you only have a couple of horses you can make this program work for you.

Making money with “Shortie the Shetland Pony” is as easy as ABC

How easy is that?  Learn to read with Shortie the Shetland Pony can be a one time event to create a buzz for your business.  Or a regular money maker that you offer perhaps once a month.

This idea can easily be expanded and presented to schools as a field trip because the activity includes literacy, creativity and also physical fitness component it complies with most school curriculums. Offering school field trips provides a wonderful  opportunity to make money mid-week during school hours (typically a quiet time for most riding schools). 

It’s a perfect opportunity to introduce new potential clients to your facility and allow them to meet your horses and experience what you have to offer.

$30 may seem a lot for just a quick pony ride but if there is an educational component to the activity parents are more inclined to spend more.  Plus the children all take home a book specifically written and designed to foster an interest in ponies.
