“Listen earnestly to anything your children want to tell you, no matter what.
If you don’t listen eagerly to the little stuff when they are little, they won’t tell you the big stuff when they are big, because to them all of it has always been big stuff.” 🧡

- Catharine Wallace

Too often we are busy, on our phones, working, or just not looking when our children come to us for something.

Children need this positive interaction early in life to feel they are seen, heard, understood and loved. Ultimately helping them to flourish and grow into the type of people our future needs in it! 🌍🧡

📱 So PUT THE PHONE DOWN!

☕️ Accept the 8th pretend cup of tea.

🙉 Listen to the same sentence over and over.

🤗 And even if you don’t understand why they feel a certain way, hold them until they feel better again 🧡

🫶🏼 Because life is too short to miss the small stuff! 🫶🏼

☀️🌲 WHY YOU SHOULD GET YOUR CHILDREN OUTSIDE! 🌲☀️

1. Increased exposure to Vitamin D
2. Improved sleep pattern!

🦷 1. It’s no secret that vitamin D is essential for strong bones, teeth and muscles. We get most of our vitamin D from the sun, ESPECIALLY if our children are slightly fussy eaters and don’t get all the correct nutrients from their meal times.

🦴 Vitamin D deficiency is one of the most common in the world, with 1 in 5 people having one. This is associated with poor muscular skeletal health such as rickets, osteomalacia, falls and poor muscle strength.

☀️But we only need sun exposure for 10 minutes to start producing vitamin D!

⏰ 2. And how can it help your child sleep?
Getting outside early on in the day is a really affective way of adjusting a sleep pattern. To put it simply, exposure to natural light early in the day pushed sleep schedule forward, while late exposure to natural light pushes the sleep schedule back later. This is called our Circadian Rhythm.

✏️POINT IS …..
Getting your children outside early on in the day benefits how they grow and develop, as well as how well they sleep! No brainer really 😅

Of course our classes cannot be outside all year round. But we have had incredible luck with the weather for the start of our Sunday sessions - and look forward to continuing them over the winter 🤍

🌿 Well that is the end of our first batch of Sunday Sessions! (A little late I know!)

They have been a huge success and it has been amazing to watch so many children come together and put effort into their listening skills, perseverance, resilience, team work and even facing some fears!

The final session had to unfortunately be cancelled due to personal reasons, which was hard but a reminder to always put your health & body first to avoid further setbacks! It is challenging if you don’t stop like me but our bodies will thank us in the long run 🧡

So I have been taking it easy this week, making some plans and admiring our new t shirts all ready for our next group sessions on August 14th 🐒🧡

🌿 If you have a 2-4 year old and would like to give one of our Sunday Sessions a taste drop us a DM or an email, or 1-1/private group sessions for 5+. You can also plan ahead and save some money with one of our Bundle deals!

As well as this, we do birthday parties! 🎊
Let me keep them busy, so you don’t have to! 😏✨

🌿 MATHS IN YOGA?! Yes you read right 👩🏽‍🎓

🐒 In yoga we can work on every area of a child’s development, most of the time without them realising that they’re actually learning!

I’m going to start simply with 5 ways we work on early maths in our 2-3 year old sessions.

Believe it or not this is how we all start learning mathematics!
Being dyslexic, I have never been good with numbers myself. I can’t help but think I may have enjoyed them slightly more if I had an activity like yoga to practice these skills in!

✨1. COUNTING
- We count everything! How long we hold poses for, how many children there are, how many of something you can see. The list goes on!

✨2. LANGUAGE OF SIZE
- understanding the meanings of bigger, smaller, taller, shorter, heavier and lighter. These comparisons enable children to enhance their vocabulary not just on the mat, but off the mat too!

✨3. SHAPES
- noticing shapes in the environment as well as shapes we can create ourselves. Noticing our rectangular mats, our triangular cones, and our circular stickers, to name a few. We can also use our own bodies to create different shapes, the possibilities are endless!

✨4. PATTERNS
- this does refer to more physical patterns, but similarly to patterns on paper, we give opportunity to notice patterns in movement. What is repeated, what comes next? What would make sense here? All of these allow children to feel in control and increase their independence!

✨5. NUMBER MATCHING
- Being able to match a number of objects to the correct number is a skill that needs to be developed. This means we are always counting objects, asking how many of something there are and correcting ourselves when we don’t get it quite right so we have a chance to learn 🐒

These are just a few ways your child could work on their maths without even realising it … who’d of thought 🤫

💌 Any questions or enquiries please don’t hesitate to drop us a DM! 💌

🐒 Concentration faces… CHECK ✅ So proud of these little ones!

🌿 We like to use our cones as one way to practice stillness. This activity also gives us a chance to practice our maths, communication and language and physical development. Who would of thought it!

🐒 Children love being the decision makers, choosing what to do and having things their way. This is why we love to give them options, and even let them choose which route to take the lesson. Want to pick a pose out of the yoga book?! Or you just want to have a lie down? Either is fine with me, we work with our mood at the time! 🧘🏽‍♀️

🚤 Last week we chose Navasana (Boat Pose), look at these little stars showing how it’s done 🌟

🤸🏽‍♀️ And we finished with some Acro Yoga! Here we challenge ourselves, face fears and see things from different perspectives.

We all left with smiles on our faces and further tools to take away and conquer life with, such as:
✨Turn taking
✨Sharing
✨& Patience

💌 DM if you have any questions about how to get involved! 🐒🧡🌿

🌿 Our Sunday Sessions have been filling up quick!

🌿 We have just a couple of spaces left over the next couple of weekends, so be sure to book your FREE space now before it’s gone!

🐒 If Sunday isn’t the day for you but you would still love your little one to access this experience, maybe a private 1-1 or Group class is more up your street. I can come to you or we can find ourselves a lovely outdoor spot, not hard to find in Tunbridge Wells 🫶🏼🌳

🧘🏽‍♀️ Any queries please don’t hesitate to send us a DM! And enjoy this beautiful day ☀️🧡🐒🌿

🌿🤸🏽‍♀️ Changing perspectives and taking yourself upside down is something that even a lot of adults find a daunting part of their practice.

🐒 Although children can generally be pretty fearless, some show more interest in this experience than others.

🤗 It’s okay to be scared! And it’s okay not to want to do something!

At the same time, facing our fears early on gives us a better chance of not taking them into adulthood with us.

My favourite quote “A comfort zone is a beautiful place, but nothing ever grows there” suits perfectly!

🧡🌱 Encourage your children
to Step out and grow! 🌱🧡

🌿Another lovely Sunday morning spent with our 2-3 year olds! 🧡🌿

🐒 The beauty of these sessions is that they are enjoyed by the children with freedom. We alternate movement and mindfulness activities to maintain attention and celebrate every victory no matter how big or small!

🧘🏽‍♀️Just like in our own practice we go into these sessions without expectation, only one thing is for certain and that is that we all leave with a smile on our face! ☺️

💌 If you think this could be a nice way to spend a Sunday morning, drop me a DM or email [email protected]! 🦋

🐒 Some images from our 5 year old session last Sunday!

🌿 The class was fully booked but unfortunately 2 couldn’t make it due to unforeseen circumstances, so these girls has a more personal lesson!

🧘🏽‍♀️ We first spoke about how in Yoga we move with our breath, and practiced this with our Sun Salutation A.

🌿 We then used our props to pick and choose the Asanas we were going to practice that day.

🌿 As well as practicing different asanas from the Ashtanga Primary Series, we practiced our patience, our communication and our social skills by understanding why it’s important to take turns and share!

🧡 The girls seemed to really enjoy their first free taster session. DM or email to enquire about yours 🧘🏽‍♀️🌿

Today was the debut of our Sunday Yoga Sessions! 🤸🏽‍♀️

We opened with a group of 2.5 year olds, where we let off some steam, practiced some poses and played our “what’s in the box” game we learnt at nursery, which I have tailored to Yoga!

After this first session I had an older group where we tried some breathing exercises (pranayama), played musical statues and tried some handstands amongst other things!

Every child went away with a certificate and a sticker. It was so lovely and I can’t wait for next week!
