Panning for Gold is a fun activity!

If party is to be outside or in a garage, use bales of hay for seating....

Use white plastic tablecovers and cut 'spots' out of black posterboard...glue or tape unto white tablecloth to look like cow print..

Draw large farm animals unto posterboard to use as back drops on the walls...

"Lasso 'round the horse"... construct a horse out of wood...get a piece of rope long enough to tie a loop that will go around the horse's head and long enough for child to stand a few feet away to lasso it....

*** If weather and space permits-- rent a pony for pony rides. Check out your local directory for horse stables, the cost is usually $100.00 for an hour.
