About Toddler Yoga
Toddler yoga is a fun, playful way for young children to explore movement, develop their bodies and begin learning simple tools for relaxation and emotional well-being.
Forget sitting still in silence — toddler yoga is all about learning through play! Sessions use animal poses, stories, music, movement, imagination and simple breathing activities to keep little ones engaged while supporting their development.
What is Toddler Yoga?
Toddler yoga combines movement, mindfulness, music, imagination and play in a way that is accessible and enjoyable for young children.
A session might involve pretending to be a stretching cat, standing tall like a tree, balancing like a flamingo or moving through a story together. Children are encouraged to explore movement at their own pace, with activities adapted to suit their age and stage of development.
It isn't about getting the poses "right" — it's about having fun, moving their bodies and building confidence.
Why Toddler Yoga?
The early years are such an important time for physical, social and emotional development. Toddler yoga provides a fun opportunity to support these areas alongside the learning already taking place within your setting.
Physical Development
Yoga encourages children to move in different ways, helping them develop:
-
Balance and coordination
-
Strength and flexibility
-
Body awareness
-
Gross motor skills
-
Spatial awareness
-
Confidence in moving their bodies
Emotional Well-being
Simple breathing, movement and relaxation activities can introduce children to ways of slowing down and recognising how their bodies feel.
Over time, these playful techniques can help children begin to develop self-awareness, calmness and confidence.
Social Skills
Toddler yoga is a wonderful group activity. Children practise listening, taking turns, copying actions and joining in together.
Sessions can also encourage cooperation, confidence and positive interactions with their peers.
Imagination & Creativity
Stories, music and imaginative play are at the heart of toddler yoga.
Children might travel through a jungle, become different animals or explore an imaginary world through movement. This makes yoga exciting while encouraging creativity, communication and engagement.
Supporting Your Early Years Setting
Toddler yoga can complement the learning and development already taking place within your nursery or early years setting.
Sessions provide opportunities to support areas including physical development, personal, social and emotional development, communication, listening and attention, all through age-appropriate play and movement.
Most importantly, children get the chance to move, explore, laugh and learn together.
What Does a Session Look Like?
Every session is different, but you can expect a combination of:
-
Animal-inspired yoga poses
-
Music and movement
-
Storytelling and imaginative play
-
Simple breathing activities
-
Balance and coordination games
-
Relaxation and calming activities
Sessions are fun, energetic and engaging, with quieter moments woven in to help children experience the contrast between being active and being calm.
