Fun Horse-themed Games https://peachviewstable.com/fun-horse-themed-games/ Sun, 24 Feb 2019 10:51:58 +0000 https://peachviewstable.com/?p=28 Horses are among the few animals humans have a special connection with. Since they are so beloved, there’s bound to be plenty of video games featuring them. In the digital realm, horses are trusted steeds, powerful companions, and the stars of the show. Here are some horse-themed games to try out:

Red Dead Redemption

This game follows a former outlaw, John Marston, as he sets out to bring members of his former gang to justice. Different breeds of horses are pretty much the only means of transport. Each horse offers different attributes but they must be tamed to use them. Gameplay elements include horseback riding, hunting, shootouts, heists, maintaining the character’s honor through moral choices and deeds, as well as interacting with non-player character.

The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim

In this game, the player improves skills by developing the character and completes quests with the hope of defeating Alduin the World-Eater. The horses in this series offer more than just transportation; they also help attack your enemies. The Shadowmere, one of the horses, is super fast, cool-looking, and very deadly, allowing it to overcome many monsters travelling throughout Skyrim.

H.O.R.S.E

This game is actually an acronym used to describe a combination of five poker games:

  • H – Hold’em
  • O – Omaha Hi/Lo
  • R – Razz
  • S – Seven card stud high
  • E – Eight-or-better (Seven card stud high-low)

This multi-game form of poker is commonly played in tournaments and at high-stakes table of casinos. Playing this game can be a great way for players to develop expertise in multiple games. This game is a bit complicated than regular poker.

Shadow of the Colossus

This game specifically features one horse –Agro. He isn’t just for transportation but a key factor in some of the game’s battles as well. He’s also the character’s companion throughout the forbidden lands in the game. The horse’s speed allows the character to speed up to an incredible gallop, keeping him safe and away from attacks.

Here, you get to build up your own stables and train your string of horses to compete in races around the globe. You can also breed horses in the hope of them becoming the next big thing in horse racing. In addition, players can bet on races.

Horses for the Grown Ups https://peachviewstable.com/horses-for-the-grown-ups/ Mon, 18 Feb 2019 11:19:59 +0000 https://peachviewstable.com/?p=38 While horse riding can be a fantastic way of getting fit and having a fun-filled day for your loved ones, there are plenty of other ways that horses influence our lives. Not least, through the sport of horse racing. Horse racing was introduced into the UK in the 12th century, it’s history spans as far back as 648BC in the Greek olympics where chariot and horse back racing were just two of the events the athletes competed in. You can bet on four main types of racing – flat, endurance, trot and jump racing. These are competed over varying race lengths, with endurance races being the longest, sometimes reaching up to 100 miles in length. Trot racing is unique as the horses involved are harnessed to the jockey. Harnessed racing is not usually practiced here in the UK. Different type of bets are available, with the win bet being the easiest to comprehend. For a win bet you select a horse that you believe will come first in the race. For those who prefer a lower risk bet, or are not sure of the recent form of a horse you could also bet each way/place which pays out on the first three or four horses past the post, depending on the final number of horses in the race. For those who would rather pay less money for their bets but increase the potential returns you can try wagering on multiple horses through parlay betting. Parlay betting is where you can incorporate several bets into one, only paying out if all legs of the bet win. So, for example, if you were thinking of betting on the Ascot 2:10, 2:45 and 3:15 it should pay to pick the winners of all three races and combine into one bet rather than place three separate bets with individual stakes. The retusn can be very lucrative.

Ideal Themes for Pony Parties https://peachviewstable.com/ideal-themes-for-pony-parties/ Mon, 04 Dec 2017 14:24:05 +0000 https://peachviewstable.com/?p=13 Princess parties can be a lot of fun for young girls – and young boys too, who can dress up as knights! Children can dress the pony up as unicorns by attaching a horn to its head and tying ribbons into its mane.Cowboy or cowgirl parties are great too, and very popular with children who are perhaps slightly older. Kids get to show their patriotic side by adorning themselves and their steed with the Stars and Stripes, with a pair of cowboy boots to give the entire look the finishing touch.And of course, there’s the ever classic My Little Pony theme, where everything gets to be as bright and as colourful as possible. Top off the entire party with pinks, purples and bright blues, and serve snacks that serve the taste of every colour of the rainbow.

Is it safe?

Trained staff is usually onsite to help the child on and off the pony, as well as to be present on either side of the animal. Children wear protective equipment such as helmets and western saddles, which are normally recommended for youngsters as they can hold on to the saddle horn for a safer grip.The ponies themselves are chosen for their quiet and docile characteristics. They are trained to be calm, patient and not given to fright or panic easily. They will be used to being around people so excitable or high-spirited children will not disturb them.Pony parties are usually held in enclosed spaces and areas which are fenced in. This is to ensure that the ponies do not escape and are given a visual boundary that is clear to them.Along with all of the above, the ponies are usually experienced and used to being around children, having been tested for temperament and the personality needed to be around kids for a considerable amount of time.

Make It a Multi-Faceted Experience https://peachviewstable.com/make-it-a-multi-faceted-experience/ Fri, 01 Dec 2017 14:23:58 +0000 https://peachviewstable.com/?p=11 When it comes to pairing up a child with a horse, we take it very seriously. Factors like size and temperament are taken into consideration, and ability and confidence are also points of importance. Children must get to know the horse slowly at first, and gradually build up a relationship with the animal.

Did you know? Facts about ponies

  • When compared pound for pound, ponies are actually stronger than a regular-sized horse, despite their smaller size.
  • Ponies usually have a gentler disposition and a steadier spirit in general. However, like humans, each one has its own personality.
  • People with disabilities are often recommended horse-riding as a form of therapy.
  • Ponies are very intelligent, and, when spoken to, they often respond better to our tone of voice than to our words. They also have a remarkable memory – some say even better than an elephant’s.
  • Ponies are physically different from horses in stature and structure. They have shorter heads, thicker necks and shorter legs. This makes them ideally suited to children whilst they are learning to ride.
  • There are over 200 different breeds of pony in the world – the Shetland pony being the most well-known and, some say, the cheekiest!
  • ‘You can lead a horse to water, but you can’t make him drink’. Spot on. Ponies only drink when they are thirsty.
  • Contrary to what most people think, ponies are not baby horses but simply a smaller breed of horse.

Pony Parties https://peachviewstable.com/pony-parties/ Tue, 28 Nov 2017 14:21:49 +0000 https://peachviewstable.com/?p=9 Your child deserves the opportunity to experience one of the most popular birthday experiences that is currently sweeping the market.Pony parties, as they are colloquially referred to, are fast becoming one of the most popular ways for parents to give their children a birthday to remember. Everybody knows that children love ponies, and the horse has always been a figure of joy and wonder to little ones, who love the countryside and spending time outside with animals.Pony parties are also a great opportunity for children to learn about the equestrian way of life – grooming, feeding, boarding and training. Instead of staring at a screen, or being locked in with a computer, kids can be in contact with nature and the fresh air – not to mention all the benefits that come with horse-riding.Your child can become a better and healthier person through horse-riding – it’s a scientifically proven factDid you know that learning to ride a horse can improve a child’s self-confidence, along with developing their cognitive skills and improving balance and co-ordination? Learning how to take care of an animal leads to a bond developing between horse and child, which also teaches a young boy or girl the importance of responsibility and care towards another living being. Although ponies are much smaller than a regular sized horse, they are still considerably larger, and face more of a challenge than a cat or a dog. Accordingly, learning how to take care of a pony properly is empowering to children and young people.Studies have also shown that the effects of horseback riding lead to developing a strong core and legs. Along with this, vibrations that emanate from riding a horse resonate within the sympathetic nervous system. This leads to a better understanding of problem-solving skills and mathematics amongst young children, thus leading to a betterment of their mental capabilities.Studies of horseback riding have also led to what is now known as Equine Assisted Therapy (EAT) – a field which has proven the therapeutic benefits of activities with horses, and the various ways they have a positive effect on human health, both physically and mentally.

Hi There and Welcome! https://peachviewstable.com/hi-there-and-welcome/ Sat, 18 Nov 2017 14:19:34 +0000 https://peachviewstable.com/?page_id=6 Welcome to peachviewstable.com! If you are interested in holding your child’s next birthday party in an outdoor environment, where they can be surrounded by nature, and experience the benefits of animal care, then pony parties are a great idea!

Why pony parties?

They offer a perfect escape from the busy and hectic lives we lead nowadays. Aren’t we all tired of seeing our little ones bent over screens at home, ignoring the serenity of the outside world?

How do pony parties work?

Pony parties are usually held at a farm, a fair, a ranch or occasionally at zoos. Children have the opportunity of learning how to ride ponies for a short time, along with learning how to groom them and how to take care of them properly.Pony parties are very often themed – children can come dressed as cowboys or cowgirls, knights and princesses or even cowboys and Indians to give it that real Western feel. Children are sometimes allowed to dress the ponies up as well, even by giving them brightly coloured hair accessories.There is something for every child to enjoy at a pony party. For those who are new to being around these animals, they will get to have a brand new experience and a real feel of what equine life and care is like. For those who already take riding lessons and are a little more experienced, they might even be able to do things that are a little more adventurous, for example leading the ponies around an obstacle course.No matter the activity, being around ponies gives kids the chance to be outside in the fresh air, and teaches them the importance and responsibilities of caring for another living being. They are ideal for those up to the ages of about 10 or 12, depending on the size of the animal, although sometimes older horses can be used to accommodate older children.
