tot yoga

Newest super fun "Mommy and Me" activity? Yoga.
Jonathan loves rolling and unrolling the yoga mat. I've also been teaching him yoga poses since he started doing down dog about a year ago on his own. It was SO cute couldn't help but teach him the name so I could ask him to do it on command. He now has quite a repertoire including:

Down Dog:

Mountain:


Warrior:

and tree (which he picked up tonight, but I was unable to photograph because he would only do it while holding my hands)

He likes mimicking new poses and so we spent about 20 minutes tonight practicing various poses interspersed with marching, tip-toeing, and waddling. He especially likes to have me do down dog or plank and then crawl underneath like a tunnel. He usually then requests a "squish with tummy!" by which he means he wants me to do a push-up and squish him with my tummy.

  1. Toddler yoga is about the cutest thing ever. Liam loves airplane pose, mostly because of the name:)
