Synopsis

Yoga activities are a great way to teach children about relaxation, meditation, and peace - while having fun at the same time!

This box is packed with yoga activities - children will learn how to stretch into Tree Pose, bend into Bow Pose, and breathe like a lion.

Children can choose what they need and select an appropriate pose, whether they want to feel relaxed, energised, strong, or balanced. Step-by-step instructions guide children through each pose to ensure they get the most out of their yoga practice, while annotated images of kids like them completing each pose provide a clear example to follow.

Each card is designed in a soothing pastel colour scheme, and brightened by fun illustrations, making them a pleasure to read and refer back to. Sequence cards at the end of the pack suggest combinations of poses for children to perform together depending on their mood and what they want to achieve. Glossary cards explain the meaning of words used in yoga practice and the Sanskrit names of poses.

Supporting a child's positive mental health doesn't need to be expensive, time-consuming, or difficult. Yoga Flash Cards for Kids are an easy and fun way to encourage your children to de-stress, focus, and get moving in our busy modern world.
