Ages 8–12: Building confidence in horse handling, leadership, and creativity.

Welcome to Mini Horse Moments Educational Camps—where adventure, learning, and creativity come together! This 3-day camp is specially designed for kids ages 8 to 12 who are ready to build confidence and develop leadership skills while working hands-on with miniature horses.

Campers will learn horse safety, haltering, leading, and how to read equine body language. They’ll engage in fun challenges like guiding minis through obstacle courses, explore horse care and tack basics, and dive into creative crafts that highlight their individual style. With every session lasting 3 hours, kids will form meaningful connections—with both the horses and new friends. It’s an unforgettable journey of growth, discovery, and fun!

Many Jaialdi events are free, but for ticketed events such as Sports Night, Festara, Dantzaldi, and Basque-ing at Expo Idaho, ticketing is managed directly through the venue hosting the event. Visit the Ticket Information page for more details on pricing and availability.
