I really like this book but my 1 1/2 yr old doesn't always want to do it. I think he would do better in a class.

I saw this at a conference, and knew it would be a big hit with my son. Whenever he sees the book he wants to do "Itsy Bitsy Yoga" and yesterday at the train station he was practicing his "gorilla" pose while waiting for his Grandma's luggage. Lots of fun :)

This is the 2nd book I got from Helen. After looking through her two dvds on baby yoga and her book Yoga for Toddlers, it's fair to admit that Helen is a genius! This book is GREAT for anyone seriously working with small children and who wants to incorporate fun-filled action that is also important to children's health and physical development. This book is ground breaking because I've ever seen anyone incorporate such concepts into a kindergarten or elementary school.
And the poses do WORK! These ideas should seriously be considered for kids pre-k and up in any school in any country. I can't wait for the dvd - if there is one on this book! Helen is a genius!

I've just begun to use this book, and it is fantastic. My 18-month old son is very active and really enjoys trying out different poses after watching me do a short routine. He especially likes down dog, which is not surprising given that babies like to look at the world from different vantage points. The author gives good advice on how to instruct your child using simple language and keeps the routines brief, which is perfect for us at this point. Overall, we've had a lot of fun and have laughed quite a bit. A fun way to engage with your toddler.
