Easter is just around the corner and we join the Shetland pony Easter egg hunts to find out what happens.
First, the ponies are decorated by the children. Can you see Toffee? How is he decorated for Easter and does he look special?
Then, it’s time to follow the Easter egg trail around our acres of farmland in the beautiful Surrey countryside. We love to keep a lookout and see if the children can see any real Easter bunnies.
At the end of the trail there is an Easter egg hunt for real Easter eggs and the children love hunting for them in the meadows.
We then put our ponies away and finish with a lovely Easter rosette presentation which is all good fun!
