Yoga for children in exceptional pictures - 32 educational hands-on cards

Yoga is currently enjoying great popularity - not only among adults, but also thanks to what is on offer for children. Yoga makes it possible to access mindfulness via both movement and stillness and contributes to resilience and self-confidence in an ever accelerating world. This yoga card set for children takes them along on an illustrated journey made by a boy called Neal, who not only encounters many different animals on
his way, but also learns more about the art of yoga from one stop to the next.

The set contains 32 attractive, picture cards, illustrated in colour, which teachers can hold up in class or give out to the children to look at, or include playfully in the lesson: each card depicts a boy called Neal doing a yoga exercise – ‘Asana’ – along with a catchy tag phrase. In addition to the yoga movement, the illustrations also depict a concrete image of the asana in question, for example a lion, tree or tiger. The special aspect of these artistic representations is that the boy and the concrete exercise merge with one another. This means that the children are able not only
to imitate the posture of the boy as shown on the card, but also empathise with the exercise and memorise it. In the booklet there are lots of ideas for educators and other yoga fans on how to use the cards in play.
