A traditional American custom is to bring a surprise Pony to your child’s birthday party: Have your camera or camcorder handy to record the joy and the excitement upon our arrival! Whatever the occasion : Joey’s 1st, Great Great Grand’pa’s 100th, the Garden Club Perennial Picnic, Uncle Bob’s Yearly Family Reunion, your local Fire Department Clam Bake, a Grand Opening, trust Ponyshare to handle the job right!
The fee for a two-hour party is $495 (at Seaton Hackney County Stables in Morristown-440 South Street, Morristown, NJ 07960)
This fee lets you bring up to 20 kids. Beyond that number we will need an additional $5 per child.
Locations
We have currently two locations in NJ where you can host your birthday party:
- At Seaton Hackney Stables
(440 South Street in Morristown, NJ) - At Your Location (see below)
Birthday Parties At Seaton Hackney Stables
At Seaton Hackney Stables, PonyShare will provide:

- A Hostess and helper for the duration of the party
- Unlimited Pony Rides and Mini Cart rides
- A petting Miniature Horse, Pony or Donkey for the kids to groom, lead around, play with (anything short of trying to pin a new tail on it
) - Pizza and drinks for the kids, generic paper goods
- A shaded area where the food and (your) cake will be served
- ……and, of course, lots of fun!
- This is perfect for children ages 3yr-10yr. If the kids are older, you may want to substitute a horse for a pony and even add mini lessons instead of the pony rides.
- You can also bring your own treats or goodie bags for the kids, some finger food for the adults, or we can provide these for an additional fee.
- Although the kids -and the adults- will have plenty of fun with the party “as is”, you can customize it with other options that could include:
- 1. A horse for one hour for the adults to ride or to provide mini riding lessons for the kids instead of pony rides -recommended for 10yr & up-,
- 2. A tractor pulled “Drunken Driven” Hay Ride around Seaton Hackney 30ac farm (twice throughout the party/$75),
- 3. A horse and an instructor for the adults for one hour ($75)” ,
- 4. A Face Painter for one and a half hours ($100) and other funny stuff we may come up with together.
The way the party works is as follows: You should arrive about 20-30 minutes before your first guests and work some last minute details with your Hostess. Then we will greet your guests and talk to them about safety around/on horses and ponies. Then the rides will start. Food and drinks should be available about 20-30 minutes into the party. The rides will go on until about 15 minutes before the end of your time frame so as to allow for the cake to be served and Happy Birthday cheers to take place.

Birthday Parties At Your Location
Renting a Party Perfect Polite Pony from us for your Child’s birthday or Family gathering is not only inexpensive (often less than a Clown or a Magician!) but will guarantee the success of your event.
Lots of kids? Kids too young? Kids too old? Read on…
Our lovely Amish made Meadowbrook Carts pulled by real cute Miniature Horses will delight the crowds and add a touch of class. It’s like having an additional attraction for only a few dollars more ($30)! They are also great to cut down waiting time in line as they seat 3 to 4 children. Younger kids, who may be afraid to get ON the pony outright, will love starting their equine encounters on the Mini Cart. Older kids love them too! Try a mother and her toddler and have your camera ready. Guess who will scream first !
How about a petting, leading, grooming, do-anything-except-try-to-pin-a-new-tail-on-me PonyShare critter to keep the kids busy while waiting for their turns? It will only set you back $30 and will definitely be a hit! Don’t forget some carrots for Jack the Donkey, or a can of Coke (Pepsi’s OK too!) for Prince the Polite Pony, then relax and enjoy the Show ! Kids too old ? Some even over 40 ! What if we bring them a large draft pony or even a horse so that they stop cutting the kids’ line to ask for a turn? Here again, it’s only $30 more.
Go ahead, go to our special Build-A-Pony-Party at your location page and reserve what you need. We only require a small $50 deposit which you can charge on our web site and which we will gladly refund if the party does not take place on account of bad weather.
