My kids and I like this one the best. It does not concentrate on poses as much as having fun moving your body. My 4 1/2 year old and my 2 1/2 year old can do this easily, and request this DVD frequently.

We love this dvd! I have 5 and 8 year old girls. The eight year old had been doing this since she was one and we don't even do it on a really regular basis (as we should). Marsha produced a yoga video some years ago and it was terrific, too. I wish she would put that one out as a dvd. We lent it out and used it until is was scratchy. It is also worth having. This new one has more poses, though. Even my husband does this with the kids! A great buy! Get your kids their own yoga mat and blocks and they will really get into it.

I bought these for my daughter after I was trying to do my yoga tapes and noticed that me daughter was trying it too. My tapes didn't hold her interest so I thought I'd give these a try. What a hit!!! I do it with her, too. We are both enjoying them. She asks for it by name... "Yoga kids! Yoga kids!". I've caught her doing some of the poses and breathing even when the DVD isn't running. Hoping she'll have healthier habits than her mommy!!! :)

Although I liked the fact that the kids were the ones doing the poses I was disappointed with this dvd. It was more of an instructional how-to than an interactive one. My 3 and 5 year old watched it and the video gets into too much explanation of the poses. The picture on the screen goes from a child doing a pose to an image of an animal or something else and leaves you waiting too long until the next pose comes up. Would have liked to see a yoga routine at the end using all the poses together that my kids could follow through and repeat on their own.

This is a nice yoga video for children, as are the others in this series. Ms. Wenig does a nice job of presenting the movements to the children (some other presenters use such a sing-song-y or overly mature manner). One thing that is really nice about this particular video is the educational information it offers to the children during each pose or movement; to my recollection all are science-based. I use these videos with my own children as well as my Kindergarten students. While they all enjoy this video; evident by the regurgitation of the educational pieces offered to them; their favorite as a whole is really the ABC's Yoga Kids Video. That one always earns cheers!

This dvd is great fun. My kids (5 1/2 and 3 y.o) beg to "do Yoga". I like it that they are moving while watching a show. I have found them imitating the yoga positions even when not watching, just while playing together. I recommend this product.

I bought the second and third volumes as a set, and we love them. Therefore, I thought the first would be equally as good, but I was disappointed. There is little interaction from Marsha (aka Mrs. Yoga) and the order is kind of random. Most of the poses are in the other two volumes as well. This one does have more songs; that was the only benefit for us. This DVD seemed more like a rough draft. The next two are a much better, finished product.

I found this video to be disappointing. It mainly just goes from pose to pose without much ease in transition. Also, the music isn't very inspiring for children.
Although it did spark the interest for my children they weren't ga-ga over it. They prefer my grown up yoga video's to this kid's one(my children are 4 & 7).

Both of my kids love this video and beg for it every night! My son is almost two and my daughter is four and both of them enjoy it immensely! Even my husband who is a bit new to yoga loves doing it with them....I just play teacher and help them all with their poses since I am a veteran yogi. :o)

My three year old just loves this video! He does the poses and sings along with the songs. My sister was over and did it with him and remarked that it was a great intro to yoga video for her, too. It explains some aspects of yoga, health, and vocabulary. (in a fun way!) I am very happy I bought this DVD.
