The
games in this book help teachers, parents, and others who
work with children maintain or restore order, refocus children’s
attention, and break up the classroom routine. Most of the
games are quite short and can be used between academic activities
as a treat or quick break. Many
are non-competitive, most don’t require props, and
none require special skills or training. All can be played
with the whole class; there are partner games, small group
games, and outdoor games. Clear, complete instructions are
included for each activity, and icons denote appropriate
age levels, time, and group size. Back

The
perennial question of "Who am I" acts as the fundamental
Yogic concern that Wiesner addresses in this delightfully
illustrated yogic text book for kids. Introducing the basics
of Hatha Yoga in a simple and enjoyable way to children
and all who are young at heart, Wiesner provides a clear
reference text to a topic that is often seen as unnecessarily
complex and demanding. Wiesner’s credentials come from
an American government accredited diploma for Yoga Teachers.

A
simple presentation of more than 20 yogic postures, with
step by step instructions, including straight forward breathing
and relaxation exercises. Every step along the way is illustrated
with a full colour image depicting a child engaging the
various postures. The images drawn by Annie White are brilliant
montages of an actual child woven into a brightly coloured
illustration. Designed for children, it is colourful, serious
and fun at the same time. A perfect introduction.

This
pack of beautifully designed cards and guide booklet presents
group and individual games, suggestions and explanations.
The cards are divided into eight sequences of yoga postures
with easy-to-follow instructions, with five or six cards
to each sequence. Children love the challenges that are
inherent in these games and exercises. For children it is
just good fun, but in the longer term it is deeply beneficial
- and the enjoyment makes learning easy. Yoga itself is
recognised as a practice which promotes physical strength
and flexibility as well as mental focus. Kit: 48 cards,
booklet (28p)
