Let’s Have Fun in Yoga Class! Yoga Props for Kids

Teaching yoga to children is different that teaching yoga to adults for many reasons. One of the biggest differences is the use of yoga accessories and props that you use in a kid’s yoga class. Children are very visual and having a few surprises and fun items on hand, while introducing yoga poses, breathing exercises, and mindfulness will really help the kids be more engaged during class.

Here is a list of some of my favorite kids yoga props…..

1.) Granuncy Rainbow Hand Ribbons

These Wooden ribbon kites with bells are so much fun! Get creative and do anything with them.

The Bintiva cushioned soccer ball markers are the ideal circle time / floor time seats. The large 14" diameter, soft interior, and mesh exterior creates the ideal, comfortable, learning environment. The space markers are machine washable ensuring a hygienic learning environment.
