This was a big week in our house. My 3 and 5-year-olds received a present in the mail from their amazing, fantastic, best-ever mom (me!): their very own yoga mats. Yoga has been the newest and greatest thing in our home lately, beating out ice pops and backyard sprinklers. This is a kid-obsession I can get behind. Yoga is often reserved just for adults, when in actuality it can keep kids active, relieve their stress, and encourage them to think in positive ways. Clear some space on the floor (no mat necessary!) and try some of these yoga apps with your little one.
