Another week of Kids Yoga...and the Director was right. Week 3 they begin to test you!
I brought the drums out at the beginning today. Not the best idea! They were wild the rest of class. I have two boys that know each other well, so they spend much of their time running after each other. And today one mom brought both kids, so she was trying her best to be "good cop" to both of them.
It began to settle out when I brought the scarves out in the mystery box. I found two songs related to scarves to use. And to encourage the boys to return back to the circle, I challenged them to "paint" their mats with the scarves.
My Scarf Goes (Tune: Farmer in the Dell)
My scarf goes up, my scarf goes down, and then my scarf goes around, around, around.
My scarf goes in, my scarf comes out, and then my scarf likes to fly all about.
Scarfkin (Tune: where is Thumbkin?)
Where is Sadie, where is Sadie? [child hides under scarf] There she is! There she is! [pull scarf off]
Hello Miss Sadie, hello Miss Sadie. Hide again, hide again
