I thought I had already posted about this, but can’t seem to find any proof of it on Equus Education! I wanted to tell you about a great initiative, Horse Lover’s Math:
Are you looking for fun, educational content for horse crazy kids? Check out Horse Lover’s Math (HLM).
It has been my idea to create horse related resources over at TeachersPayTeachers – even resources for general skills like mathematics. As a horse fanatic, I would have loved resources at school that were horse focused whilst teaching me the skills I needed to learn!
Engaging Students at Horse Lover’s Math
Horse Lover’s Math is set up to help teachers and parents engage their horse crazy children who may not be so fond of math. There are varying math levels covered for school aged children.
There are heaps of horse related articles with corresponding math questions. There is also a place where students can check their answers. Consider the likes of a horse’s weight, fitting a rug, height in hands and measuring out feeds. If it involves horses and maths, chances are it’s been covered on the HLM site! On top of this, horse related math products can be purchased in the HLM store – a great idea and an incredible horse related niche that can be turned into a career!
As well as free resources and those you can purchase, you can also subscribe as a member to the site. This is just another way to add value for visitors and to also generate income for the creator!

Thanks Christine for letting others know about Horse Lover’s Math. When I receive comments like this, ”Horse Lover’s Math has helped me recognize how important math is and also has made math much more fun!” I know I’m meeting a need. Much like you, I would have loved this when I was a horse crazy girl in elementary school.
