I used this story in my kindergarten and 1st grade Wellness Classes. Everyone loved the colorful illustrations and story, as I projected it on the smartboard. Students of all abilities looked at the image of yoga pose or watched me and worked through each movement carefully. After reading we discussed the stories rich words, adjectives and sensory experience. We closed our class with making a mug of hot cocoa craft to use for mindful hot cocoa breathing.
I loved this experience.
It was the first time I used a yoga story for whole group teaching and it was easier than I imagined it would be. It truly kept student interest and focus.
Thank you for this wonderful story!
The kids yoga stories program came at the most perfect time when I was just starting my yoga program in an elementary school. The program gave me a firm foundation, the best resources and an amazing sounding board through Gisele and Cassandra, as well as a quarterly check in with other program coordinators.
This book gives so many options on exploring emotions. It is very useful and I love the visuals, which are always a good reinforcement to my yogis. :)
Thank you for sharing your feedback, Diandra!
You are doing incredible work with your students.
We really appreciate you!

Giselle's products are of superior quality and extremely useful. Recently I purchase my second set of Breathing Exercise for Kids. I gave one set to one of my colleagues to use in their classes with kids. I found the cards great for even working with my Senior Fit Classes and my yoga classes. I like all the products but especially like the card copy cards. The digital formats are great. Thank you for all your hard work and dedication Giselle.
