All Schleich figures are lovingly hand-painted with detailed modeling and allow children to learn as they play. The rider is saddling her beautiful Icelandic pony mare so she can practice the tilt and flying pace, the two gaits that the breed is known for. After the invigorating training, she tends to the young Icelandic pony foal and fills its rack with delicious hay so that it can grow up to be as big and strong as its mother.
