I bought this book for when my young son is able to do yoga. I thought it would be a story with yoga incorporated, but it's just drawn pictures of a little boy or girl doing different poses...didn't really need a book for that.

Both of my children (aged 3 1/2 and 1 yr old) love this book. It's the perfect "first yoga picture book" for babies and toddlers. The colorful illustrations, practice tips, and explanation page make it the perfect gift for the little yogi in your life.

With my 2.5yr old I love going through the Little Yoga books, by Rebecca Whitford. It is definitely one of my favourite times in the day. There are 7 poses in the book; first with colourful double-page illustrated pictures of the poses with some text, and then at the end of the book, it shows the poses again, this time as photographs of toddlers performing the poses. My toddler watches me demo the pose and then tries it herself. It's fun and highly enjoyable!

I used this book in a yoga session with pre-schoolers of mixed ages (babes up to aboiut 5 years). They were all pretty entertained by it and I would definitely use it again. There is no storyline in the book - it simply shows pictures of the different animals with the yoga baby doing the poses. But it's the simplicity of it that works. A really good buy especially as there are so few yoga books for this age group.

this is a wonderful book of basic yoga for toddlers and parents who are starting out. you can follow what you think is happening in the pics, or you can read to descriptions in the back of the book, my 1 and 2 yr old love "stretching" time now, it's great to keep them happy and you can use the animal noises to make them excited as well. Very excellent book!
