Our Equine Assisted Learning (EAL) summer program will give children skills to manage their emotions and polish their social skills. Practicing social skills with horses allows the kids to engage with these skills in a fun and nonthreatening way. Together, we will explore what horses can teach humans about life skills. EAL is a type of experiential learning designed to develop new neural pathways. These specifically designed interactive exercises focus on the development of relationship skills, while providing opportunities to practice interpersonal interaction and communication, including interspecies communication.
