Spooky Yoga

A picture book for children ages 3 – 7 that will get young readers up from chairs, laps and classroom seats to move and groove with multiple costumed creatures colorfully depicted in rhyme and illustration. Basic moving yoga poses are coordinated with each creature’s personality, designed by co-author, Kathy Graham, a certified yoga instructor.

Beginning with Mummy in a quiet breathing pose, characters change costumes and perform yoga movements as friendly monsters who are spooky but never too scary. Endnotes explain how to perform each pose, though creativity is encouraged. Doctors, therapists, health/wellness experts and educators know that, more than ever, children need to move to regulate a state of attention and translate some of their energy into calm focus. Playful movement nurtures self-awareness and promotes positive mind-body development.

Not just for Halloween! Fun, exercise and action all year round.
