Learn All About Horses

Birthday parties are always fun, but there usually isn’t much to do beyond eating cake and ice cream and playing a few games. This year, why not plan a truly memorable experience for your child by planning a birthday party at our horse riding school. They’ll get to invite up to eight of their closest friends to learn all about horses. We’ll show them around our stables, let them interact with the horses, and teach them about how to care for and feed a horse. Whether your little one has asked for a pony every year for Christmas, or they’ve never even seen a horse close up, at Pink Flamingo Stables in Fort Worth, we love sharing our love of horses with people of all ages and experience levels.

Suitable For New Riders

We understand that many people today have never been on a horse — and that’s ok! We’re here to teach the basics of how to interact with horses, different terms used in horse riding, and things you should and shouldn’t do for a safe and enjoyable ride. If your child has experience riding already, that’s great — we’ll meet them at their level and show them a thing or two that they don’t know. If your birthday party group is a mixture of both new and experienced riders, we can tailor our lessons so that everyone has a fun time.

Introduce Children To a New Hobby

Many children don’t get the chance to interact with horses or learn about them unless they have been on a farm or have taken lessons before. That’s why planning a horse riding birthday party is a great opportunity to expose children and young adults to the wonderful world of horses.

Horse riding is not only fun, it offers several health- and character-building benefits. For instance, riding and caring for a horse teaches responsibility, boosts confidence, improves physical fitness, and encourages them to spend more quality time outside in nature. To read about these and other benefits of horse riding, check out our past blog on Six Reasons Why You Should Enroll Your Child in Horse Riding Lessons.

There’s a good chance that after their birthday party, your child may take a greater interest in wanting to learn more about horses and riding. If so, we want you to know that we offer multiple types of group and private lessons so your child can continue to learn about and practice their new hobby. Want to get the entire family involved in horseback riding? Sign up your whole group to take lessons or to enjoy one of our trail riding experiences.

We Have Over 20 Years of Experience

At Pink Flamingo Stables, we’re sure you’ll have a great experience. We’ve been sharing our love of horses with the Fort Worth community for over 20 years. We’ll not only teach you the basics of proper horsemanship, but you’ll also learn about English and Western riding as well as Hunter, Jumper, and Dressage techniques.

Visitors to our stables will be provided all of the necessary riding equipment. All you have to do is show up and be ready to learn! Your safety is our top priority which is why we also provide you with necessary safety gear such as helmets. We want you to enjoy your time here and not be afraid of getting hurt, so we take the time to review best practices as well as what you should or shouldn’t do when you’re riding or working around horses.

Memorable Experience

Above all, the biggest reason to plan a party at our horse riding school is to provide a memorable experience for your child that they won’t soon forget. Don’t worry — you’ll still be able to enjoy food and cake. In fact, you’re welcome to bring it with you. All that we ask is that you don’t bring balloons as they tend to scare the horses.
