Kids Autumn Sequence Yoga Cards and Lesson Plans
By Lara Hocheiser
For many, the passage into Autumn means a shift from Summer to the academic year. That passage is marked by changes of season. Long days and short nights turn to shorter days and longer nights. Summer days may have been filled with recreation, camp, family, and travel. Now schools days are filled with academics, homework, extracurricular activities, and busy schedules.
With all the changes, some students and families experience anxiety, stress, and difficulty balancing all they need to do.
Our Autumn Yoga Sequence can help yoga practitioners of all ages to feel a deeper sense of balance within.
With yoga and mindfulness, kids can become more calm, focused in school, and empowered to start every day with confidence and compassion.
Explore the benefits of Yoga and Mindfulness
Lesson Plans for Teachers and Parents
In our Educator’s edition, we provide 3 easy-to-follow curriculums for teachers, parents, and anyone else that works with children (split by age: young kids, kids, and tweens).
Each lesson plan is formatted to teach an entire class and includes:
Also included are:
Learn and Move with our Yoga Cards
Learn five (5) yoga poses. Written for kids, each card comes with easy-to-follow illustrations and step-by-step instructions. In this resource, the yoga cards come in two variations: one with instructions and another version without text, which is perfect for new readers and people that may have special needs.
This Autumn yoga deck is the perfect way to de-stress and share yoga and mindfulness with children!
Practice anywhere! Use this deck at home, school, park, or when traveling! Add to your peace corner, play yoga games, practice individual poses or as a full sequence.
Add Mindfulness to your Routine
Research shows that mindfulness can improve executive functions in their brain like cognitive control, working memory, cognitive flexibility, and better grades.
We’ve added four (4) Autumn mindfulness activities to teach your children how to manage their emotions and be present. These Fall-themed activities will get your kids excited about the changing seasons while developing their own mindfulness practice.
Also included are five (5) coloring pages of the poses so kids can mindfully color while learning the poses and a journal so they can reflect on their practice.
The Autumn Sequence is a 44-page PDF download which you can view on your phone, tablet, computer or print out onto paper. We recommend cutting out each card and taping/gluing on a 4x6 index card or card stock. For added durability, laminate each card.
Made for educators, yoga teachers, and people leading children's yoga in any setting
Includes three (3) specially designed yoga lesson plans that can be taught to kids ages 2-7, 7-11 and 11-14.
By Lara Hocheiser
This is a yoga class inspired to help students with their attitudes and feelings towards challenges in their lives. We provide activity pages, coloring sheets, and discussion prompts to get your students thinking about their strengths and areas for growth. We also are providing poses to help stretch and grow their bodies further into the pose as they repeat mantras.
In this lesson plan, we include:
“When Spring Comes” Literacy Integration Lesson Plan
By Lara Hocheiser
The story, When Spring Comes by Kevin Hikes, illustrated by Laura Dronzek, is my daughter’s favorite book year round. It's the perfect story to explore the transition from Winter to Spring. When reading this story to children, they become overjoyed to see the nature and animals related to the springtime. They love to pretend and act out the meaning of the story.
Use this lesson plan while reading When Spring Comes. This is the perfect way to integrate physical activity and mindfulness into storytime. Each page can be brought to life with our yoga sequence and our beautifully-illustrated yoga cards teach children how to do each yoga pose.
When Spring Comes is filled with imagery, alliteration, and repetition. Through this book, we can teach children these valuable literary devices through facilitated discussions, group activities and extension exercises included in this lesson plan. Also included are coloring pages, crafts, breathing exercises, mindfulness activities and more!
When Spring Comes Literacy Integration is a 24-page PDF download that you can view on your phone, tablet, computer or print to paper.
When Spring Comes Lesson Plan is designed for kids ages 4-10 and includes:
Spring Sequence Printable Yoga Cards + Lesson Plans
By Lara Hocheiser
As the winter days wind down and the spring weather approaches, many come out of hibernation. The spring season is often a time for children to play outside, participate in outdoor sports, and just enjoy the feeling of being outside in the fresh air. However, during this warm and bright season, it can also be a time of anxiety for children. Children in the upper elementary and middle school grades typically take standardized testing, which is mandated by the state. The months of April and May can actually be quite daunting for some students, which is why this spring yoga sequence is such a great addition to children’s routine. In teaching students yoga poses and breathing techniques, not only can they learn something new but they can also learn techniques that can help ease their stress and anxiety, especially when it may come to test taking.
In our Educator’s edition, we provide 3 easy-to-follow curriculums for teachers, parents, and anyone else that works with children. Each curriculum is for a specific age group: young kids, kids and tweens.
The Spring Sequence + Curriculum is a 27 page PDF download which you can view on your phone, tablet, computer or print out onto paper. We recommend cutting out each card and taping/gluing on a 4x6 index card or card stock. For added durability, laminate each card.
Includes:
