TATTY BUMPKIN FOR 2 - 7 YEARS
The sessions are great for children in many ways - physically, mentally and
developmentally, as well as being so much fun, they don't even realise
they're learning! Starting with the warm-up song "Bendy, Giggly, Clever
and Strong" specially developed for the programme by educational
musicians, classes use adapted yoga poses including the 'Salutation to
the Sun' to introduce the concept of "learning through movement" before
the magical adventure through the Giggle Tree begins - an amazing place
where we'll meet animals, fly like helicopters, be sausage rolls and
much much more!
The sessions work brilliantly as a weekly class for parents but also in
private day nurseries and as after school classes as an antidote to some
of the more hectic aspects of children’s play. They tie into the
Government Early Years framework, and each week focuses on a different
area of childhood development.
As a parent /carer you are actively encouraged to get involved in the
class, as this greatly helps with creative parenting techniques, and
continuity outside the class however you don’t need any previous yoga
experience yourself – every class ends with a relaxation – you’ll be
amazed how long your little one can lie still for! |
