Hi GTF
I definately agree with Brisbaneite.
My boys have been riding since they were 2yo and 4yo (now 16 and 18) the right pony is very important to build and encourage their passion. I would not have bought a pony that nipped or needed a chain halter.
Often as with everything you pay for what you get.......
The experience your children will have can be wonderfull with the right time and attention to detail. Go and chat to the local pony club, often there will be pony's around at this time of year for sale as children move onto larger mounts and you can see them in action.
Please remember to ask about collic and founder as little pony's are often more prone and you really dont want to buy a problem as a first pony.
Good Luck Im sure your children will have lots of fun..
and after all thats the aim!
