At what age should kids start learning to ride a horse?
user
To ride a horse you should be a year old, because that’s the earliest age they can get themselves onto a horse.

That seems a bit young

That’s true, many children start learning when they’re about 4-6.  The reason that year olds are recommended to learn is that that’s when they start to learn to walk, and a horse can often support a child’s weight.  If a child is learning to ride at 4-6 years old, then at least they are going to be at the right age to learn to ride the right way.

That sounds reasonable.

One thing you should know about learning to ride at that age, is that some horses can carry a child that age, while others cannot.  You have to decide what sort of horse is a good fit for you, in terms of what you can afford, and in terms of what would be a good fit for you.  I would recommend to learn at 4-6 years old when you can get a horse that is fit for a child that age, and that will last your whole life.
