I picked up another interlibrary loan today; this one came all the way from Virginia! Create a Yoga Practice for Kids by Yael and Matthew Calhoun. This one offers yoga classes in a learning plan format and states the benefits of each pose in the plan. It also groups the plans into common themes like "Poses that get wet" and listing all poses that have to do with that theme like Fish Pose or Frog Pose. I like this idea as it helps children reinforce what they are learning when they can extrapolate the new topics to things they already know about and do everyday. The plans are geared to older children...maybe 8 or 10 and older, depending on emotional maturity.
