Lilly almost bursts with excitement!

This week Lilly had her first lesson with the horse riding for the disabled group and she LOVED IT!!
Horses are her favourite things ever she can sign 'horse' 'saddle' 'hat' and the word she uses to say horse comes out 'yah yah' so Saturday morning we went to see the Yah Yah's, and she was just squeeling with excitement and then when she saw her pony for the lesson she was fit to burst!

This is Lilly meeting her pony 'Minnie'

Then Lilly got settled on to her Pony and she had a fantastic 30 minutes riding around the run on Minnie with her 3 grown up helpers..

Grinning away like a cheshire cat!!

After her lesson Lilly was sooo happy and content and was then very very tired due to her severe hypotonia so she had a long nap afterwards.

Special Horse riding sessions given by experienced staff can help children and adults with special needs and disabilities in many ways, the ways we are hoping it will help Lilly are in helping her hypotonia and hypermobility syndrome, her sensory processiong disorder, her balance and coordination, her speach and language skills, plus many of her other problems could be helped by it, so we think its going to be amazing for her.

Watching Lilly have her lesson was just amazing, she did sooo well and im sooo proud of her, Well done Lilly xxxx
