Great intorduction to Yoga for little ones!Feb 08, 2006
By M. Downing
"Nannymom"
My daughter got this for Christmas and loves it. At 17 months old and she and her cousin, who is 2, do all the poses. Not always correctly but, they practice all the time. They always look for the book in the book shelf and have memorized the easy words and poses. It's adorable to see them becoming little Yogis! A fun book even for those that know nothing about Yoga as it relates the poses to well known animals and includes photos of toddlers doing the poses in the back as well as tips and an explanation for parents for teaching the poses correctly. As a former Yoga teacher, I highly recomend this book.

My 2 yr. old loves this book. The pictures are fun and easy to copy. It's a great way to keep her active when we have limited space.

Great for toddlersAug 02, 2006
By jmo My two year old loves this book and quickly learned all the poses. The book has a few basic poses which are renamed for the animal they mimic. For example, "standing forward bend" is renamed "monkey" because the pose resembles a monkey bending over. The illustrations and text are simple and the back of the book has photos of actual children doing the poses along with some parental tips. It's a great book and I highly recommend it. It's also a great gift idea for a young child whose mom practices yoga.

Great fun for little ones!Sep 13, 2007
By Tracy Sawyer My 18-month old loves this book. Every morning she opens it and does the postures without any prompting from me. The illustrations are fabulous, as well as the photographs of actual toddlers practicing yoga. I've used the book as a springboard to discuss all sorts of topics .... especially temper tantrums. When my daughter is upset, I tell her to "breath like a lion" to get her breathing and more importantly calm. I've practiced yoga for well over ten years and was hoping to introduce my daughter at some point. Little Yoga: A Toddler's First Book of Yoga enabled me to do so much earlier than I thought possible.

Best yoga book for kids out there!Mar 05, 2009
By Annissa My sister (2 years old at the time) loved doing yoga with me and was starting to make me look bad with her natural flexibility! :P
I wanted to find her a fun yoga book and checked out every single yoga for kids book and DVD from the library. This one was by far the winner. Some of the books were way too difficult and boring for her (My Daddy is a Pretzel) and some were just too weird (Wai Lana's Little Yogis VHS).
The first time we read this book she immediately jumped up and started trying the poses, all of which are perfect for kids and not so difficult that they get discouraged. She loved repeating back the animal noises and demanded that we read it again the second we finished reading it!
I also thought the illustrations were some of the cutest I've ever seen. The kids actually look like kids! I'm not digging the trend in kids' illustrations that make kids look like miniature emaciated adults.
Anyway, after reading it everyday while I had it from the library, I bought it here on Amazon along with Sleepy Little Yoga for her birthday. Now, at the ripe old age of 3 she's mastered all of the poses in this book and we can do the same poses together when I do yoga!
