Horsey Games?
Our 4H club plays hosts informal games after our shows for young riders. What are some fun riding or ground work games our kids can play? We do red light/green light, egg and spoon, ribbon race and walk/trot 2 man relay. Anything else you can think of?

You can find about 100 games with rules under NZPCA team mounted games 2006
Here are some of the favorites where I ride:
Musical Stalls: The poles on the jumps are arranged on the ground and the horses trot around them in a circle while music plays. When the music stops, the horses and riders have to get in a "stall". After a horse is elimenated, a stall is removed.
Pepsi Challenge: Riders carry a glass of Pepsi on their horse. As the competition moves on, you walk, trot, and even canter. When the time is up, the riders with the most soda in their cups win.
Sit-a-Buck: (Make sure there are trainers nearby if someone falls off). Riders go on their horses bareback with no chaps. They must keep a dollar bill under their leg at the walk, trot, and canter. The advanced division can also jump low jumps. The last rider with their dollar wins. You can use fake money if you want to.
Pole Bending Race: A race at the walk or trot around an obstacle course to the end of the ring. The first rider to complete the course wins.
Ribbon Pairs: Two riders walk, trot, and canter holding a ribbon between them. The last pair holding the ribbon wins.
Costume Class: Riders dress up themselves and their horses. The categories are "Most Beautiful", "Funniest", and "Most Creative", but you can make up other categories.
Simon Says: "Simon" gives commands (walk, trot, and canter around the ring) and the riders must do it immediately. The last rider remaining wins.
The winners got a jumbo chocolate bar.
