Learn the English Phrases TO HORSE AROUND and HOLD YOUR HORSES

Read along to practice your English and to learn the English phrases TO HORSE AROUND and HOLD YOUR HORSES In this English lesson, I wanted to help you learn the English phrase, to horse around. This is a phrase we use usually when we're talking about children who are just acting all crazy. In fact, I remember as a kid, my parents often saying to me, stop horsing around. So when you horse around, it means as a kid, you jump around, you make lots of noise. Maybe you scream a little bit. And usually parents don't want their kids to horse around when they're somewhere out in public. So sometimes at the grocery store, my brother and I would be horsing around. We'd be grabbing boxes off the shelf or jumping around and making lots of noise. And my mom would be upset because she didn't like it when we horsed around at the grocery store. So, to horse around simply means to act like how kids probably should act just in a way that parents don't appreciate when they're in public.
