Les Sabots de l'éveil

Enable children and adults from all backgrounds to access the countryside and the world of horses. Teach children and adults about the characteristics of the living world by observing equines and discovering their way of life. Develop a sense of benevolence and mutual aid, camaraderie, and teamwork in children and adults through animal grooming, observation, discovery, sharing of experiences, and empowerment through responsible work. Allow children and adults to develop tools that promote learning, communication, concentration, and improve mood and behavioral disorders. Take advantage of the benefits of outdoor days and close relationships with animals to promote the development of openness to others and respect in children and adults. Offer children and adults the opportunity to discover horses through riding (bareback or with an ethological saddle pad or saddle, bridle, or vaulting harness), in freedom (leading them in a workspace or observing them in a park with their peers), walking alongside them (holding the rope or in freedom), and during grooming (using various brushes, hoof pick, and other tools, or the shower hose).
