Kaden LOVES going to ride the horses. Some of the things we are working on while we are there is his social skills, communication and body awareness. We thought he would enjoy grooming Sunny before going out for his ride. This would be a great way to show affection to the horse and give him a sensory outlet. After brushing for only a minute he stopped, without saying a word. And Mahala asked him if it was fun, he just nodded his head no. I was surprised, I thought he would like it. But, he was just ready to ride. In a few weeks we will give it another try.
