Some more games:

Ride-a-buck:

You sit on a dollar bill, and try your hardest to not let it fly away. There are other people involved, and you ride at a walk, jog, and lope, eventually doing rollbacks and circles, and backing up. This game is fun!

Follow the leader:

Let your horse out in an enclosed area. Make sure there are no obstacles the first time. Have treats ready, and walk around the arena. A lot of times, horses will follow you if there isn't already munchies on the ground. When your horse follows you a few steps, reward him/her with a treat! Eventually you'll be able to walk around for ages with him following. Also, you can add some poles or jumps for your horse.

Fill the bucket:

Get a couple friends, and at least one barrel. Mount your horse, and have someone hand you a cup of water. Have the bucket set up on the barrel, and the barrel at the end of your arena/pasture. Ride out starting at a walk, then jog, then lope, trying to fill up the bucket as you go around it.

Find a Boot:

Have your friends and you all take off one boot. Pile the boots in a pile at the end of the arena. Have someone waiting next to the pile to grab your reins. Ride out to the pile (one-booted), hop off, hand your reins to person, find your boot, and ride back!
