Mission: Educating Children about Miniature Ponies and Horses

At the heart of Pony 4 Precious’ mission is the goal of educating children about miniature ponies and horses. Through its engaging website, the organization offers a wide range of educational resources, including videos, information, pictures, training programs, games, and kid-friendly educational pieces. These resources cater to children of all ages and backgrounds, allowing them to learn about the equine lifestyle in a fun and interactive way.

Miniature Ponies: A Learning Opportunity for Kids in the City

If you ask any child if they want a pony, the answer is likely to be a resounding “Yes.” Miniature ponies, with their cute and compact size, capture the imaginations of children everywhere. But for kids living in the city, where can they go to learn about these fascinating animals? That’s where Pony 4 Precious comes in. With the potential of cartoons, books, toy companies, and YouTube videos, Winston, the beloved miniature pony, can become a household name, thanks to the efforts of Michael Eastwood and his five children’s books,  available on Amazon and Barnes and Noble. Children all over the country are reading and learning from Cowboy Mike and Winston. 100% of all book proceeds are donated to Pony 4 Precious charity.
