5 reasons for your child to learn to ride!

The daily life of the children is filled with many commitments, but on the verge of summer we start wondering how to set their days.

One of the interesting activities could be horseback riding. Yes, it is not the most budget sport - but compared to all other activities - it may not be so much inaccessible.

You can try this Saturday, June 2, 2018, at Park Center Sofia - there will be horse riding on the meadow behind the mall from 11:00 to 17:00. Absolutely for free - two large horses and a pony will be available for children, and one pony for the youngest. 

Here are our 5 reasons to consider horseback riding as a summer option:

It's healthy

Yes, like any sport, this improves the tone and helps for the better physical shape of the children.

The mission to motivate children to go out is easy to do - just give them an adventure! Most kids, regardless of whether they are 4 or 44, will be enthusiastic about it.

Making new friends

Getting your children out into new environments is a great way to help them make friends. Riding can lead to social-life benefits and meeting new people that could develop into life-long friends.


Confidence booster

Learning to ride and care for an animal that’s twice their size can really empower children. It’s a great way to boost their confidence through encouragement and compliments, highlighting areas where they’re gaining new skills and rewarding them for showing improvement in these areas.

Learning life-lessons

Riding is great for instilling an attitude in children that success and rewards comes off the back of hard work.

Dealing with animals also helps children put others before their own needs. If more people understood thatр the world would be a much kinder place.

Responsibility

The overall care of horses, including feeding them and keeping them healthy teaches children about caring for others.

Learning to look after and ride a pony gives kids a sense of responsibility and accountability that stands them in great stead as they grow up.

And instead of wondering whether to choose the horseback ride - bring your child to the meadow behind Park Center Sofia on Saturday - June 2, 2018, where from 11:00 to 17:00 will be two horses and a pony available.

We have a workshop for skilful and gifts for mom as well. :)
