Do you have kids and are they interested in horses or you would like them to be? Well I have a website for you. The University of Guelph has redesigned their horse website. I heard about it and went to check it out at www.equineguelph.ca It is a nice website but what I found there was another link to another site and if you have kids you are going to want to go to www.equimania.ca This site will definitely teach them about horse health care and they will not even know the are learning; they are just having fun.

Equimania Stables is very well designed with a lot of cool computer tricks such as books you read online that you use your mouse to turn the page just as if it was a real book. The tack room which teaches your child about colors, leg markings, face markings and it looks like they will have in the future anatomy. I got a perfect 100 in Happy Appy’s stall (stall 3 - hint be sure to pick the stall too). Oh and try and beat my high score (low time) on putting items away in the grooming box. You will find this game in the wash stall. I was able to do it in 5.9 seconds after about a dozen times it is quite addicting (did I say this site was for kids?) I did notice that a couple of pages are not finished but overall a very creative site and educational on how to care for your horse definitely worth a visit. So be sure to check out www.equimania.ca and teach your children about horse health care in a fun way!

I had mentioned that it is important to have a pair of EasyBoots for your emergency kit. It is imperative that you have these fit to your horse before you ever have the need to use them. Well Karen at EasyCare & Endurance Musings made mention of this point on her blog. So I surfed on over to her site to check it out and I found a good deal of important information when dealing with the use and care of EasyBoots. I think you need to go check her site out - Karen’s EasyCare & Endurance Musings
