Madison Fields | Horse Breeds Activity
At Madison Fields we have many horses with varying personalities, but have you ever wondered what breed each horse is and how it makes them special? In this horse breeds activity, we introduce you to each of our horses by name and breed and give some insight into what makes them so unique. There are even some discussion questions to keep students and families engaged while getting to know our herd a little better. Let’s continue growing together each and every day!
