11 Kindergarten Yoga / Get Moving for School | RGS

In a Kindergarten classroom, incorporating Yoga and Get Moving activities is an excellent way to engage young learners in both physical and mental exercises. Teachers can use these activities as part of a morning routine to help children start their day on a calm and focused note. Incorporating short yoga sessions during the day can also be beneficial after recess or lunch to transition back into learning with a peaceful mindset. Additionally, Get Moving activities can be interspersed throughout the day to help children release pent-up energy, improve coordination, and enhance their overall motor skills.

When selecting Yoga / Get Moving products for your Kindergarten classroom or student, consider starting with visual aids like yoga pose cards or colorful mats that capture young children’s attention. Secondly, look for products that are designed specifically for the age group, offering simple and easy-to-follow instructions or poses. Lastly, think about versatility; choose items that can be used in various ways such as balance boards that double up as seats or stepping stones for motor activities, ensuring you get the most out of your purchase.

Typically, Kindergarten classrooms have children aged 4 to 6 years, encompassing grades Pre-K to K. This age range thrives on activities that combine movement and play with learning. When purchasing items specifically for this group, prioritize safety and durability to withstand the energetic and sometimes unpredictable nature of young kids. Unlike higher grade levels where activities might be more structured and intense, kindergarteners benefit from shorter, more varied sessions that keep them engaged without overwhelming them. Always look for products that are age-appropriate, easy to use, and safe to ensure a productive and enjoyable experience for your little learners.
