This EXCITING bundle includes three kids yoga story scripts about kindness, acceptance, forgiveness, inclusion, and compassion. Kids yoga story scripts are also a great way to combine literacy with physical fitness while using a familiar story kids love!
Stories are a SUPER FUN tool that helps kids yoga instructors, parents, and educators/librarians with basic knowledge of kids yoga poses to easily incorporate yoga, mindfulness, and self-regulation skills help young children develop strong social-emotional foundations.
Each story is designed to help young children develop valuable learning lessons and life skills:

✔ It’s important to keep trying, even if something seems too hard.
✔ It’s good to show kindness to others and be nice.
✔ Just because someone is different, it doesn’t mean we can’t be friends with them.
✔ We should never judge anyone until we get a chance to know them.
✨ Jack & the Beanstalk ✨
✔ It’s important to make decisions that keep us safe.
✔ We should always listen to our parents and teachers.
✔ It’s good to show kindness to others when they need help.
✔ We never go anywhere unless we have our parent’s or teacher’s permission.
✨ The Littlest Lion ✨
✔ Sometimes things seem very hard, but we should still keep trying.
✔ We should always try our best to show kindness toward others.

The Sun Salutation sequence is a great way to start the day or any yoga practice! It helps children feel present and stress-free while drawing energy like the heat of the sun. We often use Sun Salutations to create a flow of movement from one pose to the next. Try this as the perfect warm-up for any yoga practice, to get your kids ready for school, or as an after school activity to burn off extra energy.
Our playful Sun Salutation sequence and song are perfect for children ages 4 and older. This Sun Salutation takes the strength and development of children into consideration. This variation of Sun Salutation is safe for children who do not have the core strength required to safely practice planks and low push-ups. Instead, this sequence features safe, child-friendly poses in an order that they can safely transition from one pose to another gracefully.
Sing along with us! Enjoy the lyrics of this sequence as a mnemonic device to remember the sequence for years to come. Try it as call and response when leading children of any age 4 years and up.
The Sun Salutation Sequence is a 19-page PDF download that you can view on your phone, tablet, computer or print out onto paper. If printed, we recommend cutting out each card and taping/gluing on a 4x6 index card or card stock. For added durability, laminate each card.
Yoga teachers and educators, enjoy printing as many decks as you have students. Save money and spread the yoga love.
Wake up happy, healthy, and ready to go with the Sun Salutation sequence. Use this deck at home, school, park, or when traveling!
