Printable Show Me Cards for Rainbow Level allow young students to demonstrate simple horsemanship skills. Our students love using these cards while mounted in a challenge box — especially when they can use it to earn prizes.
We build the challenge box in the arena using four ground poles or cones. Each student rides to the box, steps in, and asks the horse to halt; they then choose a Show Me Card from your hand. The card is read out loud, then the student must demonstrate that card’s skill.
It’s a simple and effective tool that adds a fun element of surprise to any lesson. Show Me Cards can be used for private lessons, or for group lessons where riders exit the challenge box and ride to high-five the next rider.
Use our cards as a starting point and create your own unique Challenge Card Sets!
