Magic Woods Pony Parties

We are hosting the most magical garden parties!

We provide tables, chairs, tableware, and decor for up to 10 children.

The tables will be set close to the pasture, where the ponies can watch us celebrating your child’s party. For the decoration we have several themed sets and colors to choose from.

We have several ponies and horses for these events. They are all super sweet and well trained, but differ in size. Your child has the choice between Higgins, our Shetland pony (approx. 10hh), Abilene and Dallas (approx. 15hh), and our stunning Hanovarian Texas Sky (16hh). Please read about our rider weight limits to make sure to choose the right pony.

The parties last at least two hours.

In case of rain, it is possible to set the tables in the barn.

I recommend a pony class for up to 3 children, who want to take their time to slowly get used to horses and have endless time for kisses, hugs and pictures before riding.

Safety

Our biggest goal is to make your event an unforgettable and unique experience. To make sure that it will also be safe for all guests and horses we had to set up some rules. Please ask us for more information if you have any other concerns.

Safety rules for the pony rides:

  • Our ponies are professionally trained and healthy.
  • We hand-walk them at all time, and parents are always welcome to walk along with their child.
    • Children 3 and younger need a parent to walk next to them, holding onto them while riding.
  • Please be prepared to have at least one adult available to supervise other guests while rides are taking place.
    • Please help us keeping an eye on the children. We are busy handling the ponies, helping mount and dismount, and watching the kids while riding. While hand-leading a pony, our focuses are and should be on the riding kids.
  • While being around horses it is important to wear close-toed shoes.
    • No bare-feet is allowed near ponies! This rule applies as well to adults if we bring our bigger horses (15hh or higher).
  • Helmets of assorted sizes will be provided.

Additional things to think about for parties at your venue:

  • Before arriving, we need to make sure that you can provide a safe venue (parking, garden, etc.).
    • All we need is a safe place to park and unload the ponies. Even in small yards, driveways, or parking lots our ponies are ready for the rides!
  • Please keep other domesticated animals like dogs away from the pony activities.
    • Our horses are used to dogs but not every dog is used to horses. Don’t forget that horses are flight animals and can react accordingly.
  • We might ask you to refrain the guests from using certain toys like trampolines close to the pony rides.
    • Please explain your children that jumping on trampolines, playing ball, bursting balloons, and swinging close by to the ponies might frighten them and should be avoided.
  • We will take care of all cleanup after the ponies, leaving you with only magic memories.
    • But please be aware that ponies might leave some hoof prints in the grass, especially after rain.

Additional precautions for the parties on our farm:

  • Before the rides start, our horses are in their stalls. It is not allowed to enter or open a stall.
  • Don’t reach through the bars. Moving their head abruptly the horses could hurt your arm.
  • Our farm is 26 acres of pastures and woods. While there is no public traffic, there are other things to be aware of, like ponds, creeks, and of course an undisturbed wildlife. Please keep your children close to the barn.

Safety rules for our horses:

  • Rider weight limit for our small ponies (up to 10 hands) is 60lbs maximum. Weight limit for Abilene (15 hands) is 150lbs. Please choose the ponies accordingly!
  • Please do not feed the horses without our permission. We will have horse treats ready for the kids to feed them after riding.
  • We expect all guests to treat our ponies with the respect they deserve.

All of our rules are set to keep you, your guests, and our ponies safe!
