One of my dd's friends is turning 5. She loves horses. She has the Little Ponys as well as realistic looking horses. Does anyone know of cute game or puzzle that has to do with horses. Or maybe a horse stable?

I was a horse lover growing up and rode horses for many years.

I'd say you can't go wrong with anything Breyer. THey are collectible and I still have a bunch of mine stored away :) IIRC they also make stables, etc.

I have no experience with this, but here's a link to a board game that might work

they also have tons of other horse related merchandise on their webpage.
I saw horse themed playing cards as well.

Not sure if this is too spendy but I saw this recently in a catalog:

The pillowcases would be cute.

I can't vouch for this website and I didn't check around for prices but here are tons of ideas regarding Breyer merchandise:

If you want to save on shipping, I'm not sure if you have local "tack shops" (horse supplies/equipment), sometimes places like Agway, Southern States, or other "farm" type stores have Breyers in stock, and I've seen the sets of small ones at Barnes and Noble. I've seen some Breyer stuff from time to time at Ross, etc. Some Petsmart stores have an equine section and carry Breyer merchandise.

Lots of choices here:

HTH!!
