"The Yoga Adventure for Children is an illustrated manual for
teachers at primary schools and yoga teachers who wish to create
children's classes. Featuring 80 drawings of poses, the book
playfully acquaints children with yoga stretches and postures and
the philosophy behind the practice. Blending yoga, play, dance,
music, drama, and drawing, the book requires very little
preparation before use. Parents too can share "The Yoga Adventure
for Children with their child at home. Practicing yoga together
offers an opportunity to both parents and the child to laugh, play,
and have fun together.
Many yoga positions are inspired by animals and stimulate
suppleness and strength, and all aspects of yoga are included in
the games: relaxation, breathing, concentration, meditation,
self-awareness, and visualization. Concepts like karma, chakra, and
the elements are explained and developed without too much confusing
detail. The games in this book can also be used to increase
children's concentration and self-esteem, and to stimulate them to
express more creativity, imagination, and better social skills.
