It depends on the child.

How do we know if he likes it or not. Whether he'll be scared or not. It's safe that way.

Horses are high, of course, it's dangerous, it can throw him down or gallop, then he'll have fear for life.

Show him the horse first, he will tell you himself whether he wants to or is afraid. And any interaction with the animal world is only good for him.

You will see for yourself if the child wants it. My seven-year-old granddaughter is not afraid, she rides with pleasure.

Get a helmet for your child. Kids falling off horses have sometimes crashed to death. Even from a HUNDRED of horses. Better start with a PONY.

it depends on the child and the horse's disposition We have horses in every park. The very young sit with their parents. Who is not afraid - the Horses themselves work with children only the calmest. The nervous ones are not allowed to children The guide leads the horse and watches its behavior BUT! This does not reduce the level of danger. It's a big animal, and no one knows what's on its mind I almost got killed by a horse, though I happened to be standing nearby, when suddenly a kamaz truck honked. The horse got scared and threw the baby off, laying down with its hind legs. I didn't even see her - I was talking to an acquaintance, I was standing with my back to her when she suddenly got scared. The hoof flew a few centimeters from my temple. I've been avoiding places with horses ever since.
