Gifts for Horse-Crazy Kids

Horse-crazy kids come in two kinds: the ones who collect and the ones who ride, and most are both. This page covers both sides, from Breyer Stablemates and blind bags for the shelf to real riding gear sized for children: gloves, zip front paddock boots, a certified helmet, children's spurs and a felt pad for the pony.
What Parents Are Actually Asking
What age are Breyer blind bags for?
Breyer Wind Dancers and Mini Whinnies blind bags are small collectible figures with surprise models inside, so they suit kids who are past putting small toys in their mouths. Check the age guidance on each product page.
Should I buy a child's helmet as a surprise?
Only if you can measure their head first. The Troxel Rebel carries ASTM/SEI certification and comes in several sizes, but a helmet that doesn't fit snugly won't protect them, so if you can't measure, let them try one on or choose the size themselves.
Do the Shires Clio Plus paddock boots come in children's sizes?
Yes. The Moretta Clio Plus is made in both adult and child sizes with a front zip, which makes it easy for kids to put on themselves.
Are spurs right for a young rider?
Only if their instructor says so. The Weaver children's spurs have a short shank and are sized for small boots, but whether a child should wear spurs at all is a call for the person teaching them.
What if it doesn't fit?
Every order carries our 365-day guarantee, so an unused gift can come back. Return shipping is paid by the customer, so check the size chart first if you can.
How to Choose the Right Gift for a Young Rider
- For collectors: Breyer Stablemates and blind bags are the easiest gift to get right.
- For new riders: Gloves and paddock boots are usually the first gear a beginner needs.
- For riders who show: A certified helmet and a fitted pony pad are gifts that last several seasons.
- Check with their instructor: For helmets and spurs, fit and readiness come before the wrapping paper.
What This Page Is Not For
This isn't a toy store. Apart from the Breyer models, everything here is real riding gear, so it needs a size, and some of it needs an adult's judgement about whether the child is ready for it.
Brands Riders Trust
Breyer for model horses, Shires for kids' gloves and paddock boots, Troxel for certified helmets, Weaver Leather for spurs and Professional's Choice for the pony pad. These are the same brands we sell to adult riders, scaled down.
Family run since 1994, Hooves & Paws backs every order with a 365-day guarantee, so a gift that misses can still be put right.
