Schleich Pony Agility Training Set Review

AD. Gifted Review

We have always been a big fan of Schleich animals and so when we got offered to review the Pony Agility Training set which is part of the Pony range, we jumped at the chance. 

Lily was super happy to get the set and couldn't wait to play. I didn't imagine that the set would have to be put together but unfortunately it did come in lots of little bits. 

But luckily it didn't take to long to put together, everything easily slotted together and Lily also managed to help me do it. There was also a few stickers to add to the set.

About 10 minutes after opening the box it was ready to be played with.
Lily loved the pony's. The lovely thing about Schliech animals is that they are painted and finished to the finest detail, not a detail is to be missed and so this really does help the child get a real feel for exactly what the animal would look like. The pony's are no exception and are so adorable. Seeing them makes me want to have a horse. The horse also comes with a Bridal that you can put on and take off. 

The set also comes with a little girl who is also painted really nicely with such detail. She comes with a little riding hat that you can put on and off. 

The little Agility corse itself is really great. The fence clips together making a circle so its all contained inside and then there is a gate which you can push open and closed. It also comes with a little silver lock that you can push down to keep the gate shut. They really have though of everything when it comes to design. 

Also included there is a ramp for the horse to walk over, a set of jumps which is put together with 4 logs and 2 red sticks, and 2 cones with red obstacles on the sides. It also has an arch to make the horse walk through. The great thing about this set is that you can change things to make the obstacle corse different. You could put the logs on top of each other to make the jump higher or you could move the red sticks to the cones to create a different jump. 

Lily really enjoyed this set and she actually played with it for a long time. Which really is a good sign that she enjoyed it. It was nice to see that she had an early understanding of what would happen on an agility training corse and she was making the pony's gallop and jump and walk over the ramp. I think it is a toy that really encourages a child to have a think about ponies and the things they do.

Her favourite thing to do was open up the gate and walk the pony's in and out. I later gave Lily some of her other Schleich animals which included more ponies and she had a great time making them all line up to enter the ring. This shows that with this set a child's imagination can grow and they can enjoy playing with the toy for a good amount of time.

The Schliech Pony Agility Training Set is £24.99 and can be bought from Smyths Toy Stores.
