Yoga Cards for Children

These yoga cards from Yogi Fun encourage children and adults explore yoga together. Yoga has a wide array of benefits. It is not only great exercise, yoga also increases our awareness of the present moment. Such breaks are very important when everyday life is packed full of activities and screen time. The brain can rest and gather energy when we do yoga. Science has shown that such breaks are important for learning and development.
