Happy Easter Children Yoga Practice

Holidays are a perfect opportunity to play Yoga games with the family.

One Yoga game children really enjoy in my Children Yoga Classes is ‘Animal Races’ – For an Easter theme, I would suggest to play the game with
– The Egg Pose
– The Chicken Pose
– The Duck Pose
and of course The Bunny Pose

After a short warm up, including hips warm up (Butterfly and Miss Polly Had a Dolly) leading on to Dynamic Standing sequences, practice walking in these poses. You could count steps forwards and steps backwards, or chant in a circle ‘eveyybody s walking like a …

Children will then need to select an animal and stick to it throughout each round. They all need to race from Start to Finish in their animal walk, but everytime the leader at the Finish point turns-around, then they have to freeze and remain completely still.

This is a great game to learn to come back to Stillness and switch from dynamic to holding poses. Great way to develop emotional control too whilst having fun.
