What should I include when doing yoga for kids?

Begin With The Breath

To practice yoga with kids, begin by asking them sit or lie down with their hands on their stomachs so they can feel their bellies move. This exercise helps children (and adults) connect with the breath. Encourage the children to pull the belly in on each inhale and push it out on each exhale, and then reverse the movements and push the belly out on the inhale and pull it in on the exhale.
