“Near the forfront of the next generation of parenting tools...Red Tricycle is not your mother's parenting aide. Readers are razr-phone-toting, book-club-joining moms who at least know what a blackberry is."

Seattle Post Intelligencer April 2006

Horsing Around

My Little Pony comes alive with Pony Paradise Rides, the place for pony adventures, based at the Woodinview Stables in Woodinville. Treat your little equestrian to a trail ride, a pony-licious birthday party ÷ complete with pony costumes and a bouncy castle! ÷ or even a week's worth of horseplay at pony summer camp. Got a budding jockey in your home? A quartet of private riding lessons starts at $180/month.

Taught by trained instructors from the United States Pony Club who specialize in getting little ones in the saddle, one-on-one meet-ups are a perfect introduction to horsemanship. Or, if you don't want to go it alone, organize a field trip for your child's classroom or playgroup: hour-long group activities ($15/child) give kids a chance to learn about pony care, offer ample time to ride on the Stables' Pony Trail, and present lesson "grads" with a badge or blue ribbon at the end of the outing. Day-rides, too, groove on the group vibe: for $20 per rider, you and your lot can trot down the Trail, crossing bridges and hopping fallen logs ÷ and treating your trusty steed to a few tasty treats!

With ponies and horses available for ages three and up, Pony Paradise Rides gives every kid the chance to have her own pony, if just for a day.
