Yogi Says and Mindful Freeze are playful movement and yoga games for children aged 6 to 10. These mindfulness-based games are a great way to develop listening skills, body awareness, balance, coordination, and creativity. Each game takes approximately 15-30 minutes. All you need is some open floor space and a music player. Or, instead of using music, you can try ringing a bell.
These handouts include instructions for both games—Yogi Says and Mindful Freeze—in a colour and print version.
