A Foundational Horsemanship Program for Children Ages 3-6
At Enders Farm, our Little Riders Program is designed specifically for our youngest riders, ages 3–6. We believe children build confidence and understanding best through shared experiences, thoughtful guidance, and meaningful connection with the horse.
Our goal is to create a calm, positive, confidence-building introduction to horses and horsemanship for both children and their supporting adult.
This program provides a structured, supportive introduction to horsemanship and riding without the pressure of long-term commitments or competition. Children are introduced not only to riding, but also to communication, groundwork, confidence-building, and respect for the horse as a partner.
Whether you are exploring horses for the first time or searching for the right foundational program for your child, this is a welcoming place to begin.
Each child participates alongside a parent, grandparent, or designated support person (age 16+) during lessons, creating a safe, encouraging, and shared learning environment.
👉 No experience required, just a willingness to learn and connect with the horse.
