Halters are used to handle your horse on the ground. You attach lead ropes to halters. They do not have bits (the metal part of a bridle that goes in the horse's mouth). When you are riding, a bridle is used. It has a bit that goes in the horse's mouth to help control it. Also, the straps on a bridle are made to control a horse.

What is the difference between a halter and a bridle and can you use a halter like a bridle on a horse can you put a bit on a halter?

Well, bridles are used for when you are riding. Most have bits, although there is one type called a bosal that uses no bit. Bridles also have reins to hold while riding. You can use a halter like a bridle on a horse, just using the halter and a lead rope, but you cannot attach a bit so it can be very UNSAFE. When riding, you should always use a bridle. Halters are made to lead horses from place to place.
