Der Ponysitter-Club

A good show for kids new to horses and equestrian sports and practices, but for kids who already have experience they will likely notice very obvious errors in the show (incorrect terms, docile horses referred to as crazy, bad handling techniques, 'neglected' horse has been clipped and had its mane trimmed).

It follows the same old 'daughter has a special bond with at-risk horse(s) and her parents and everyone around her (minus one character, who's always a sassy, rich girl) think she's the real deal, meanwhile the facility is at risk of closing' story.

The child actors are pretty bad: quirky but over the top. The best actor is the main characters best friend, as she's fun and engaging, everyone else comes off very flat, scripted and awkward.

The series does have a lot of music and funny (for kids) moments, so kids will likely find it entertaining.

There are a lot of horse properties out there for young girls to watch, but there isn't one around rescue. I didn't even know that rescue horse ranches existed. The lead character Skye starts an after school club at her family's ranch with her schoolmates to look after the horses. The series teaches responsibility and empathy towards animals. It is a great series for girl 6-9 years-old. It is available on Netflix.

My 4 year old loves it. The plot lines are simple, interactions between kids and adults are respectful. It's safe for her to watch, which is hard to find these days. I like that I don't have to worry about the content and it holds her attention.

Terrible storyline and acting. Painful to watch - and I watch a lot of children's shows with my daughter. There are so many more enjoyable options to choose from.

This is a really cute show that is perfect for the little girl (or boy) that loves animals! It reinforces friendship, kindness, compassion and helpfulness! My 7yr old LOVES this show! She has watched the episodes over and over! I love that the kids are so helpful and respectful not only of the adults, but of the other kids in the show! I wish there were more shows like this out there!!
