In honor of Black History Month, we are highlighting some of our favorite Black children's authors, media, & yoga/mindfulness accounts which we believe need celebration 365 days of the year.
Today we highlight Little Yogi Deck, created by Crystal McCreary.
includes 48 simple yoga and mindfulness practices to help kids work through big emotions on and off the mat. The cards are organized into eight color-coded categories—anger, worry, excitement, sadness, joy, jealousy, shame, and peace—to give kids specific practices for the variety of emotions they might be experiencing. To offer additional support to parents, teachers, and caregivers, the deck includes a booklet explaining the approach for developing emotional intelligence in children through the practices offered. We love the diverse vibrant illustrations of children depicting a pose or activity on each card.
