“Growing up through the pony” or “How to use the pony in psychomotricity sessions”, from Catherine Saublens: a lot of ideas to play…

It is important to differentiate the terms psychomotricity with a pony, horse riding and hippotherapy. Even if we work with ponies, we are talking about psychomotricity.

The originality of this book stems from the fact that it can also be used as a basis by school teachers and motricity teachers at nursery school. Indeed, all games can also be performed in a sport room, without pony!
