I'm passing along a big chunk of my kids yoga book collection. (I felt compelled to keep the many written and given to me by my students.) This collection is a mix of how-to books, including several "OGs" like Yoga for Children by Mary Stewart published in 1992 and A Child's Garden of Yoga (out of which the infamous Double Headed Dragon comes) by Baba Hari Dass published in 1980, along with lots of fun kids books I've used in kids yoga classes. Pete The Cat, There's An Alligator Under My Bed, Commotion in The Ocean - so many fun ones, including one of my first, All I See Is Part Of Me. (I had to keep a few of these too, including Duck On A Bike - of course!)

I would love for them to go to someone getting into kids yoga or a center or organization that would benefit the students and staff. I can deliver them anywhere around the Minneapolis/St. Paul metroplex.

Any ideas?

Themes are a wonderful way to keep children engaged in a yoga practice. We created a Lesson Plan based on Hawaiian mythology where two sisters Pele and Poli’ahu hurl fire and ice at each other when they fight. Do you have a sibling? Can you relate? This gives children opportunities for emotional intelligence, perspective on relationships and cultural empathy while exploring interesting poses and myths. Check it out here:
