Anyone heard of the Bukit Timah Saddle Club before? Is it good? Or is there any other clubs that you guys think is better?

Anyone have any idea?? BTSC said they dun accept any child below 7 yrs old.

My daughter used to do pony-riding at the Saddle Club. So yes, small kids can go. But warn you first, those ponies, ah.....big like horses!!! *haha* My girl small-sized, so they always reserved the smallest pony for her.

i would like to gather some opinions and experiences that your kids may have on horse riding, is it a good sports for 4 to 5 yo ? I brought my DD who just turn 4 for a leisure horse ride, she has been asking me to go for another ride every 2 days… she said she likes it… hubby and i are ok with leisure rides, but am thinking should we let her take lesson for horse riding, what is the advantage of it and i know the danger os horse riding but to what level ?


Anyone with experience can advise further? Thanks in advance.

at such a young age im not sure of the implication up & down on the butt /spine area in the long run?

For fun i think its ok
At this age kids will love anything they enjoy
Just a thought!

thanks dear.. i personally feel too young, but my fren who is into horse riding said it's not.. anyway, i guess there are still many more activities that i can choose for my DD, this can wait till she is older..:)

i second to that …too young for horse riding…once a blue moon at the zoo ok la…but i wont want my kids to take it up so young…there are so many others activities to go for…my 4yrs old what do they know about danger except fun

swimironkids is right the impact on the butt & spine area tho may be light but better safe than sorry…hehe
