Most of the stores now have Christmas out! Isn’t that crazy? I’m just going to put the brakes on and talk a little more Thanksgiving. Just like Thanksgiving gross motor and brain break ideas, Thanksgiving Yoga is another fun way to incorporate movement and exercise as part of your Thanksgiving lesson.
Thanksgiving Yoga Pose Ideas
Thanksgiving yoga is the perfect way to incorporate all the benefits of yoga with a fun Thanksgiving Theme. Some of these benefits may include decreased stress, increased concentration, and improved self image. Not bad for a few minutes of fun!

Do you love the idea of Thanksgiving Yoga, but want it ready made and easy to use at all times? I don’t blame you!

Thanksgiving Yoga Cards and Printables
This set consists of the same 9 poses as the kids set. The difference in this set is the presentation of pictures of objects instead of kids in the poses. I’ve found that some of my kids relate better to seeing a picture of a turkey or pumpkin instead of a picture of a yoga pose!
