Customer Reviews

Great gift for kids 5 and 3, boys and girls alike!
Bought this DVD after my kids ages 5 and 3 loved the first Yoga Kids DVD. I bought them kid yoga mats too which they love. They have been doing these for months and now ask to do 2 videos a night before bed. It's great fun to watch them and know it's a really good thing. This would be a great gift for a toddler with a kids yoga mat. A great way to direct lots of energy!

too much eastern philosophy included
The exercises in this video were pretty good, but I was not expecting all of the eastern buddhist mumbo jumbo philosophy that the teacher directed at the children. I had to turn it off because I did not want my 4 year old son hearing or repeating phrases like "i am you and you are me", or "i am the light in you and you are the light in me", and "om" and "namaste", and "be the flower". Not what I was expecting, and very disappointing. I was hoping that a yoga video for kids would be able to leave all of that out, and that it would be a nice alternative to a lot of the cheesy aerobic videos out there. So, I'm still searching because my son really wants his own exercise video.

Fun yoga for kids
I bought this for my two year old son so we'd have something to do on the below zero days of winter. He is obsessed with the Alphabet Song, so I thought he'd like this DVD. It runs about 30 minutes, and there are about six children and an instructor featured in the video. It goes through the alphabet and demonstrates poses (i.e. "A" is for alligator and you lie on your stomach and wiggle like an alligator while stretching your arms in front of you and clapping your hands together like an alligator opening and closing its mouth). My son is a little young to follow the poses, but he enjoys watching the kids and hearing the music/songs they sing. He also laughs at me while I do the poses and encourage him to do the same. The poses are pretty basic, but they feel good, and there are some helpful explanations for the poses. For instance, the instructor suggests trying the "V" for volcano pose to deal with anger/frustration. I can see my son enjoying this when he's a little older, probably within a few months.
