1. he looks good! I would recommend going to check him out in person and have one of the kids come and ride him to make sure he is the right pony!
2. The pony looks good, but depending on how tall the 10 year old is you might be pushing it. Check out his height and make sure you have a vet check before you agree on purchasing. And are you planing on just leading the kids around? Because they didn't mention him being broke to ride in a snaffle, just that he's been led around...
3. he looks okay but his conformation isnt that great, i cant tell much from a photo, but he looks like he might end up with a bad back or something
4. Unfortunately, "we have only used him for leading and lunging kids on" translates into: this pony is NOT broke to ride. He may be great for kids to sit on and for you to lead them around, but not by himself. I am also wary of the very low price and them wanting to throw all the extras in for no additional cost. He is also a very small pony with a slight build. He would probably not be able to carry anyone over seven years of age. I would steer clear of this one, but good luck on your search! There are lots of great ponies out there.
5. Wow, a ten year old would NOT fit safely (for the pony) on it. 11 hands is really small. Like probably three to three and a half feet tall. He'd be fine for a three year old but no older than maybe 5. Look for something like 12 to 13 hands thats really calm. Dreamhorse.com, equinehits.com, and equinenow.com, are all very good sites. Check them out, and I'm sure that you will find a nice pony. (:
