The Horses Promote Children® - Concept

is a holistic, supportive concept.

Our guidelines were strongly influenced by Montessori and Pestalozzi.
We also see children as individuals who can be most effectively helped by their own experience and experience learn.

We differentiate ourselves from classical lessons and offer riding pedagogy and adventure animation for children and young people.

The Adventure farm in Hanhofen is our main location.

Our holistic courses take place here in a family atmosphere.

(See also "Our offers in Hanhofen").

Our courses are equally open to all children.

As a rule, the courses are Horses support children® cross-age courses.

What is riding education for us?

Riding pedagogy courses according to Horses support children® are educationally based, varied, mixed-age courses. The children naturally also acquire knowledge about horses. However, the focus is on handling the horses in a species-appropriate manner. These are not(!) riding lessons.

Our concept has incorporated modules from various educational concepts. It was heavily influenced by Montessori (see above).

What is experiential animation?

Experiential animation combines experiential education with nature education and animation.

These courses are independent of riding pedagogy. (Example: Farm Explorer Course).

An adventure animator plans and carries out educationally based (themed) events in nature and at the same time acts as an animator. This can be done by actively taking on a role or as an animator for conscious promotion.

Since 2022, Horses support children® a protected and registered trademark, of which we are very proud.
