The cards are also popular in early childhood settings. See the review in Ausdance Victoria’s ‘Kinesis’ magazine.
The kit consists of 48 beautifully designed cards and a 28 page booklet guide of group and individual games, suggestions and explanations.
The cards are divided into eight sequences of yoga postures with easy to follow instructions. There are five or six cards to each sequence.
Education through enjoyment is a consistent thread that runs through the style of teaching that Edna Reinhardt has advocated for over 30 years.
Children love the challenges that are inherent in these games and exercises. For children it is just good fun, but in the longer term it is deeply beneficial – and the enjoyment makes learning easy.
Creative Yoga Games for Kids is accessible and inspiring.
Suitable for children 4 years and older.
