        Yoga Games and Tips for Kids

 

  • Using a mat helps kids keep in their own space while practicing with others.
  • Use a 'breathing buddy' (stuffed animal) on the childs tummy to demonstrate diaphragmatic breathing.
  • Lots of yoga poses are named after animals.  Young kids like to pretend they are animals as they do the poses.
  • Play 'Mother May I', using yoga poses.  "Mother May I be a Stork"?  "No, but you may be a Lion". 
  • Do 'Down Dog Tunnels', line several kids up in down dog position and let others crawl under.
