Re: Simple & Fun Yoga Lesson Plan
Jessie - Your ideas are inspiring and so timely! As I read your description and overview this plan seems so do-able. I am wondering if you see any behavioral changes in the students following the yoga session(s)? I am also wondering if you may be aware of any preschool curriculum that has incorporated mindful practices such as yoga?
