Write Like a Pony!
Imagine Life as a Pony
Close your eyes and picture where your pony lives. Do you see a big red barn, a cozy stall full of hay, or maybe a sunny pasture with lots of grass?
Now, think about what a pony might write about:
- What happened today at the barn?
- Who are your pony’s best friends?
- What’s their favorite treat — carrots, apples, or peppermints?
- Did something funny, exciting, or new happen this week?
Writing like a pony lets you use your imagination and creativity — you can even give your pony a personality! Maybe they’re brave and curious, or maybe they’re a little mischievous and love sneaking treats.
How to Write Like a Pony
When you write from a pony’s point of view, you’ll use “I” to tell the story — as if you are the pony.

Dear Pumpkin,
I had a very busy day today! My rider brushed me until my coat was shiny, and then we practiced trotting over poles. I was so proud that I didn’t knock a single one down. After our ride, I got two peppermints — my favorite treat!
Your friend,
Cupid![]()
See how the letter follows the same parts you learned in Lesson 2 — greeting, body, closing, and signature — but it’s written as if Cupid the pony is talking!
