HorsePower for Kids & Animal Sanctuary

HorsePower for Kids is an outdoor animal sanctuary & Family Fun Farm in Northwest Tampa, near Oldsmar and Westchase.
(3777)

Our farm offers an Animal Petting Area, Pony Rides, Playgrounds, Western Town, Tire & Bench Swings, Tree House, Corn Pit, a Maze & more. We provide an equestrian based interaction, safety instruction and expectation understanding before riding begins. Equally important is the introduction to farm living and responsibilities through the petting, caring and feeding of the variety of animals at the f

arm. These lessons encourage self pride of accomplishment and goal setting through hands on learning and crafts. Some students will receive vocational and agricultural education to enable a career in an equestrian setting.

Another Reason We Love What We Do!

Google Review:
Of all the Capybara experiences, I have to say, I'm glad we picked this one! We have a special place for HorsePower, and this is just another reason. Desiree gave us an amazing private tour of the animals, followed by the sweetest, personal feeding with their 2 young Capybaras! Us adults were just as giddy as our daughter! 10 stars!!
