light on yoga, heavy on boring messages August 10, 2010 J. Rogness (Chicago, IL USA) I bought this DVD for my 3 year old and I to do yoga together. I was very disappointed--so much of the program is little vignettes about nature, animals, etc., with just little snippets of actual yoga poses. Would have loved to have seen more fun/direction about the poses themselves than the environmental messaging. Don't get me wrong, I'm a tree hugger, but it was a bit much. Also, you can tell it was produced at least ten years ago. Everything's pretty dated...
Only gives demonstration of pose March 24, 2010 Dorinda I bought this video to help my hyper 3 year old learn how to slow down and relax. This video has the children do a pose while the narrator, Mrs. Yoga discusses the specific pose. The pose last only a minute then the video moves on to fast moving, very distracting scene or animal to introduce the next pose.
My child started out doing well and then...the fast pace and variety of animals got him going again and apparently it is more entertaining to run around like a lion than to keep switching gears and slow back down for the next pose. We've tried to watch it several times and have not made it past the fourth pose.
I would not recommend this video
My kids love it March 21, 2010 J. Vannoy My 2 and 7 year old both love this. They immediately started trying the poses. I love the animal references for each pose. I wish it wasn't as slow moving like the other reviews have said. It could definitely be made a little more exciting to hold kids' interest better.
2.5 yr old daughter loves it January 4, 2010 Britta Bjornlund My two and a half year old daughter loves this video. She wants to watch it every day, follows along with the poses, and often practices them at other times throughout the day. Many of the poses are linked to animals and nature, and I think this really interests her. Her poses are getting better, and yoga helps to calm her down. She is very focused on perfecting her poses -- all in all a very well done video. I will buy the next one too!
Super Disappointed November 12, 2009 M. Lee (Minneapolis) 4 out of 5 found this review helpful
I just received the DVD two days ago. What a bummer! Yes, I probably should have read the reviews!
The reason I don't like the DVD is because I was expecting a fun way for my child to be interested in yoga. What I got was cheesy songs and yoga poses interspersed with longer segments of the animal/tree in the wild. I was hoping that at some point they would put the yoga poses all together to form a cohesive routine, but no such luck. There is just too much video with no poses - certainly more than half!
My child liked watching the DVD, but did not participate (perhaps at a later time?). However, my child, who does not watch much t.v., would watch the news if I let him.
I am not interested in trying any other in the series. But, wow, I am disappointed; there's got to be a good yoga DVD for children somewhere, no?!?
