Winter is Here!

Last week I shared this class plan at a fundraiser I organized with several other female entrepreneurs here in Lexington. We each shared our style of creative, play-based learning with families for free and collected donations of diapers and feminine hygiene products for moms in recovery at Chrysalis House here in Lexington. I’m so proud of what we collected!

This event gave me the opportunity to share a brand new, winter theme class plan with kids and families. I’m passing it on here and now to you. Enjoy!

Opening Song: To the tune of “Let’s All Go to the Lobby”

Now’s the time for stories, now’s the time for songs, now’s the time for stretches, come and play along!

Warm Up Song: “Jingle Bells / Jingle Song” by Hap Palmer

Book 1 with yoga shapes: Snow Rabbit , Spring Rabbit by Il Sung Na

Movement Song: “Frozen Penguin” by Caspar Babypants

Movements: tap head with hands, one at a time / neck rolls / standing cow / standing cat / balance on each leg, one at a time / jump into your boots

Book 2 with movement: The World Shines for You by Jeffrey Burton

An excellent book for scooting close together and trying out group poses!

Mindful Moment: Candle Gazing with color changing candles 

Rest

Closing Song: to the tune of “Farmer in the Dell”

We say namaste / to end our yoga play / hip, hooray it’s a lovely day / we say namaste
