The ABCs of Yoga for Kids

By Teresa Anne Power

Book Overview

The ABCs of Yoga for Kids uses the alphabet, rhyming vignettes, and colorful illustrations to introduce children to yoga in a kid-friendly way. Each of the 56 different poses featured in the book delightfully promote flexibility, strength, and coordination while encouraging children to incorporate healthy activity into their daily lives. Yoga is a noncompetitive form of exercise, suitable for children (and adults) of all ages and athletic abilities. Any activity for young children is important because the nation, including our youth, is under siege by obesity, stress, and diseases like diabetes, which stem from poor diet and lack of exercise. Yoga for young kids will create good habits and a foundation for well-being. Children have a lot of fun learning new positions, new letters, and new ideas. This book will delight and bring joy to the early yoga practitioner.

Wonderful Book

My grandchildren and I have a wonderful time doing Yoga with this book. Itis so colorful, and the poses realte to things chidlren know. I recommend it for everyone. I have fun doing these poses along with them.

My kids love the book.

My kids had so much fun reading the book and doing the poses. They enjoyed being able to do the poses on their own because the words and pictures are easy for them to understand and follow. When they were done reading the book and doing all the poses they really felt proud of themselves. A great book!!

Lot's of Fun

True to yoga's philosophy of the unity of life, yoga's physical practice of bringing the body into balance and lot's of fun for kids. We especially enjoyed the Namaste song.
