Working from home when you have kids that aren’t in school full time is tough to balance. I often find it difficult to keep my youngest two entertained when I have work to do which means I often default to movie time when I have a deadline to meet. Luckily the weather is getting nicer and I can send them out to play in our backyard while I supervise and work at the same time. On rainy days though, it’s nice to have an active alternative. Yoga for Kids has been a lifesaver! My four year is especially fond of these DVDs from Gaiam. Since she’s the one that spends the most time at home with me, I’m happy to have a fun activity she can do on her own so she isn’t just sitting glued to a device. The Dino-Mite Adventure is her favorite. She especially likes partnering with her sister in one of the moves.
The instructor in these videos is very positive. She she shows the poses as she talks about dinosaurs or outer space for an extra educational benefit! Since I am in the same room while my girls do the videos I can help them and offer added encouragement. All of my kids participate in sports year round so they are pretty active as it is but I like having these DVDs available for indoor fun. It also helps them learn to stretch and improve their flexibility.
Each DVD has several easy to learn routines from yoga for kids specialist Jodi Komitor. Here’s a little more info:

Both of these DVDs are a lot of fun for young children. I’m not experienced at Yoga at all so it’s also perfect for me to join in — my girls LOVE it when I do it along with them and it’s great quality time spent together.
