Default need topic! help!!

I belong to a homeschool group (yea I'm homeschooled ....hate it...but anyways) and every year they have what's called a "learning fair" where all the kids will take a topic and research it and do a presentation on it....nothing big, just maybe pictures, a few paragraphs about it and what not. Some will have the big display boards. It's not a "go up and tell everyone about it" thing...you just set up your display and do whatever you want...occasionally checking back to make sure everything is still there and if anyone has questions.

I always do mine on animals...I love animals and I'll usually do them on ones that people don't know too much about or don't like. First year I did lizards, second year I did guinea pigs, third year I did rabbits with a friend, and then the last year I did rats.
I want to do mine on horses this year, and would like to have a topic where I can have lots of pictures, explinations on everything, and videos (yeah it's going to be a big project but it'll be fun)

But I have no idea what topic to do it on. I can't just say "horse" for that would include EVERYTHING; breeds, tack, feed, medical, and hundreds of others. So I need to shorten it down...but to what? I can't decide!

I want it to be something that I can make videos of with my horse, or the horses at the stables.

Any ideas? Thanks in advance!!!

don't know if you'd want to do this, but i know you're working to get collection with Sonny. So maybe that could be the topic. And you don't have to have it perfected by the end. Say it takes weeks, months, years for a horse to get it. You could show a horse that already does it. And you would even mention different ways to get a headset and collection and the pros/cons about it. You could also mention above/behind the vertical.


Just a thought. :)

You could do something on horse color and genetics. Like how one color horse bred to another will get a certain color. Breeding for color in horses. I know there are lots of web sites you could get information from and I think it would be something interesting to learn about.

By the way I think its great you are home schooled. I know if I had kids I would want to homes school them.

good one also.

being homeschooled is okay, not the greatest for I'm stuck home with my sister all day long, and all she wants to do is talk about her boyfriend, and accuse me of being jealous of her because she has a boyfriend and I don't....I keep telling her my horse, Sonny, is my boyfriend but she just rolls her eyes and walks away
