Editorial Reviews

Hosted by Certified Children's Yoga Instructor, Ahmed Fahmy. Winner of Parent's Choice Approved, Mom's Choice Gold, Dr. Toy's Best Green Product and Creative Child Magazine "Preferred Choice" in the Environmentally Friendly Category and picked by Cool Mom Picks. Storyland Yoga is a fun-filled adventure that infuses children with an eco-conscious message. Two unique stories, "Save the Whale" and "Condor Trek" engage a child's imagination through storytelling. Kid's learn yoga postures by becoming part of the story and imitating animals. Yoga is great exercise and helps to calm children giving them greater focus and increased clarity. Storyland Yoga is equally fun for parents and family members who can benefit from yoga, while enjoying 'organic time' with their children. Ages 3 - 8 Condor Trek Run Time: 23:18 Save the Whale Run Time: 18:30 Produced by Playful Planet: 'Empowering Kids and Their Families to Be Healthy and Live Sustainably.' 100% Recycled Packaging

3.0 out of 5 stars Weird! February 7, 2011
Format:DVD|Amazon Verified Purchase
I bought this DVD for my 4 year old daughter who often tries to do yoga along with me. I thought it might be fun for her to have her own yoga dvd that is geared towards kids. While this does have a storyline to help keep the kids interested, it really doesn't focus enough on the yoga. The instructor tells a strange and disjointed story about saving animals while trying to integrate some actions and poses. He occasionally takes about 1 second to actually describe the pose, but usually just jumps from pose to pose without much description of what he is doing, and there is rarely even a good camera angle to see what to do. My daughter followed along with the story but mostly just danced around the living room because she couldn't tell what anyone was doing and by the time she got something going, they were on to a new one! In the second story, I showed her each pose and described what to do so she could at least try to keep up. While she generally seemed satisfied, I thought the whole thing was really weird and didn't seem like something she is going to want to do often. I am surprised by all of the really positive reviews for this DVD. I might have even given it fewer stars if my daughter hadn't at least enjoyed jumping around and dancing during the story.

5.0 out of 5 stars A DVD I can't live without! November 20, 2010
Format:DVD
Storyland Yoga is a Must Have for every parent with children between the ages of 3 and 7! I was a little skeptical at first that my 3 year old's attention would hold out through the entire yoga session--each of the two sessions is about 20 minutes. I did the yoga alongside him, and, though the story was interesting and cute, he left off following the instructor about 2/3 of the way through. HOWEVER, about 15 minutes after Save the Whale (the first session) ended my son asked to watch it again. So we did it again...and again. Each time he watched he did more and more of the yoga moves that Ahmed taught. Since then my son requests his yoga DVD everyday! He now does all of the yoga positions, and has become so good at listening to the instructor and is very proud of himself for it. I love it! Storyland Yoga is something I can feel totally good about him watching! What is even better is that I love doing it alongside him! It is wonderful! It is helping him expand his imagination while strengthening and stretching his muscles--and mine too! I am so excited about having this during the rainy fall days and the coming winter days!

5.0 out of 5 stars So Much Fun!! Great surprise! December 9, 2010
Format:DVD|Amazon Verified Purchase
I already had and enjoyed the Gaiam Yoga Kids DVDs but my kids needed something new. Story land Yoga was awesome! They act out stories through yoga with two adventures to choose from. What a brilliant idea! I would love to see more like this. If there was a series of several episodes, I would buy it. PBS should pick up a kids show like this. Fun, educational, and entertaining! Doesn't get better than that! :)

5.0 out of 5 stars A MUST HAVE!! January 7, 2011
Format:DVD
My 5 year old son LOVES Storyland Yoga. I wasn't sure he would be drawn to it, because he's completely into our Wii video games, and I thought he may get bored. I was TOTALLY WRONG. He adores it, and even suggested to another friend who came for a playdate today that they play it together!! My 8 year old daughter will join in, too. I love the message, the way it engages my children and the fact that in this crazy-paced world kids are still drawn to something as lovely as Playful Planet. I couldn't be happier!!!

3.0 out of 5 stars eh February 24, 2012
Format:DVD|Amazon Verified Purchase
While it kept my son engaged since it was SO short, there HAS to be something better out there! This is SO choppy as far as moving from one pose to the next. It pauses between poses, where the yogi has a close-up while talking to the camera then cuts to an animated clip, so you are left to sit up and get out of the position. There is no instruction as to how to do the positions either. I tried this with my son and it left my body feeling many kinks from it not being smooth or even, as far as both sides of the body.

5.0 out of 5 stars FUN, FUN, FUN January 14, 2011
Format:DVD|Amazon Verified Purchase
I have a hard time with all the TV kids watch these days, and how parents rely on TV for entertainment for their kids. My daughter is 20 months old and is a busy bee. During Football games we do Push-ups with Bucky, and I started to teach her various poses of Yoga to work on balance and such. I'm not a huge yoga person, just because I am more the running type, but I wanted something that my daughter could instead of camping out in front of the TV learn that physical activity is important. Although this Yoga DVD says 3 on up, I find that she is catching on very quickly. We have family time all doing bits of Yoga and I love the story line so we can relate back to the poses of things and animals. I expected a bit more flow from pose to pose, but after watching it I think they are right on track with the younger kids. I think we will grow with this DVD and when we get old enough, we will go to our gym that just started offering family yoga to learn the rest. I highly recommend Storyland Yoga, it is getting my daughter started on the right foot with physical activity in her life!

5.0 out of 5 stars So good for all of us!! September 3, 2010
Format:DVD|Amazon Verified Purchase
BRILLIANT!! So completely happy with Storyland Yoga! Entertaining stories, beautiful scenery, educational and a great way to start introducing yoga to your child and to yourself, for that matter. My 3 year old son LOVES it and it's such a great activity to do with him. We've had the video for quite a while now and he is still just as interested in watching and doing the poses as he was when it was new. Thank you to the conscious people at Playful Planet for doing a great thing for our kids!!

5.0 out of 5 stars So much fun
Story telling is a great way to engage kids, and these adventures are asked for daily! Can be done by the child alone, or together as a family.
