"Yoga Story for Toddlers" was created to establish a stable base in the soul of young toddlers who need to improve their physical capabilities, from the first day they remember themselves and many years later.All the terms in the book were carefully chosen, based on an understanding of the toddler's body, an understanding based on rich experience teaching thousands of yoga classes to children. The terms are adapted for the delicate musculature and skeletal structure of toddlers, and their primary purpose is to preserve their bodies' natural elasticity.
The book contains eight stories, illustrated with spectacular colors, and their goal is to develop the toddler's imagination and allow them to enjoy practicing yoga. Each of the stories is an entertaining tale that is in itself a yoga lesson.
The book presents the toddler with an imaginary world where animals and humans are equal, invoking sympathy and respect for nature and making the toddler feel at one with it. The child learns to understand their place in our enormous world and comprehend that they are not the center of the world, but part of the vast nature.
Practicing yoga according to "Yoga Story for Toddlers" is meant to strengthen the toddler's muscles, maintain their movement range, increase their physical fitness and improve their stability. Practicing from a young age will improve the toddler's cognitive skills, increase the integration of the left and right hemispheres of the brain through symmetrical operation of both sides of the body, all while engaging the imagination while listening to the stories.
The fun stories motivate the toddler to practice yoga with ease. The toddler's identification with the characters in the stories and the emotional thrills they provide motivate the child for a long-term practice.
