Getting Started with Equine Assisted Learning Activities is ideal for anyone needing ideas about delivering equine assisted learning sessions.There are 20 different activities ranging from watching the horses from a distance through to building an obstacle or even throwing apples! The activities are simple and would be suitable for a wide range of ages and abilities. Each activity includes an aim, the number of horses you might need and the number of people the activity might suit. There is a list of resources required and the preparation that might be needed as well as ways of managing each activity and suggestions for communication with the learners.
The instructions are easy to follow and there are guidelines about what to look for as well as useful stories about how the activities have worked in practice.
