Pony Passion (12 page)

You could also race against the clock, rather than each other – get an adult to time each pair.

Use boxes, flower pots, garden chairs and sticks to make your own jumps around the garden (use a broom handle if you’re short of sticks).

Make a water jump by filling a paddling pool.

Time each person as they race around the garden, jumping all the obstacles.

Want to make it harder? Why not play the horse and jockey game and try jumping over the obstacles? Remember what happened to Lyndz and don’t make them too high!

Make your own rosettes or certificates to give to the winner.

A long pole (4–5 feet long) or use a broom (ask first!)
