Review

"I hadn't expected to become immersed in the world of yoga for children, but Lisa Flynn's book made it impossible to not become fully engaged. This is as much a credit to Flynn's depth of experience as a teacher and trainer in the field as it is to the book's flawless presentation. Yoga for Children is a great family book in a high-quality format that provides exceptional value for parents. In my opinion, it's already a classic." - Alive Magazine

I have fallen in love with the book, Yoga for Children, by Lisa Flynn. Here's why:

1. Good introductory info

The beginning of the book outlines what yoga is and the benefits of yoga for kids. It also has developmentally appropriate activities based on age range and a list of props and toys for yoga. It provides a good foundation before moving into actually doing yoga with kids. Invaluable for a new kids yoga teacher, or a parent that wants to do yoga with their kids.

2. Doesn't water down yoga for kids

Includes core principles of yoga and how to teach them to children using yoga, storybooks, and discussion points. Not all children's yoga resources do this!

3. Wonderful mindfulness and meditation ideas to do with kids.

Contains many original mindfulness ideas that I've never thought of or seen elsewhere. Mindfulness is such an important aspect of yoga, and it's nice to see this section in the front of the book before the asana section.

4. Tons of yoga poses, all listed in ABC order so they are easy to find.

Each pose includes the benefits of the pose along with prompts of "what to do" and "what to say" when teaching the pose. The "what to say" section truly captures the essence of kids yoga with imaginative prompts and child-friendly language.

5. Great pictures.

Each pose has a simple and sweet photo of a child doing yoga, all in full color.

6. A whole section on partner poses.

Kids LOVE partner poses. There are some fun ones in this book that I've never taught before.

7. Fun games

Lots of fun games that could be used in group yoga classes or family yoga classes.
