The Pony Island FAQs

The Pony Island is designed primarily for horse-loving kids ages 6–12. Younger children may enjoy exploring courses and activities with an adult, while older kids can work through much of the material independently.

Not at all! The Pony Island is for all horse-loving kids, whether they own a pony, take riding lessons, are just beginning to spend time at a barn, or simply dream about horses.

Courses are self-paced and designed especially for young horse lovers. Depending on the course, kids can explore illustrated lessons, interactive games and activities, quizzes, and other educational content while learning practical horse knowledge.

Course length varies by topic. The courses are self-paced, so kids can complete a course in one sitting or return to it over several days.

Courses cover subjects such as horse and barn safety, grooming, horse behavior and communication, breeds, coat colors and markings, gaits, horse terminology, measuring horses, tying horses safely, and more. New courses are added as The Pony Island continues to grow.

All courses include a final quiz and a personalized Certificate of Accomplishment. Kids can also earn digital pony rewards as they complete the courses.

Yes! When a course has a matching printable learning pack, it is included with the course purchase at no additional cost.

The printables extend learning beyond the screen with activities kids can complete at home, bring to the barn, or use alongside their riding lessons.

Matching printables are available from the individual course page after you have access to the course. Look for the printable resources associated with that course.

There are many more Pony Island printables available for individual purchase. However, if you purchase a course that includes its matching printable, you do not need to purchase the printable separately.
