Take your little ones on a gentle adventure from a rainy day all the way to a rainbow!
This complete yoga and mindfulness lesson was created by Little Yogis Academy®. Children move through a simple weather story. They wiggle like worms after the rain, hop into puddles like frogs, sway like trees in the wind and stretch into a rainbow. Along the way they practice naming their feelings, calming their bodies and building balance and strength.
Everything is scripted, so you can teach it with confidence even if you've never led a yoga class.

14 illustrated yoga pose cards
7-page lesson plan with a minute-by-minute 30-minute flow
Word-for-word "Say this" scripts for every part of the class
