Fantastic Fall Stories & Yoga For Kids

Growing up in eastern Canada, Fall was always a magical time of year for me.  With its vibrant red and orange maples to the yellow birch and all the hues in between.

I remember hiking through the woods, building forts and of course jumping in a huge pile of leaves.  Fall has been one of my favorite seasons for as long as I can remember.  I even got married in Fall beneath the multitude of golden colors. 

With the cooler temperatures blowing through nothing sounds better to me than wrapping up in a warm fuzzy blanket with my best little snuggler, a nice hot cup of cocoa and a good book.

Check out some of our Fantastic Fall stories and yoga for kids.

FANTASTIC FALL STORIES

GUIDED BY THE LIGHT OF THE MOON by Jennifer Byer

Use this book to get inspired for fall festivities. Share yoga and breathing exercises that you can try at home or in the classroom. It’s scary how fun this book is! 🎃👻

*Now available on Kindle so you can read and move hands-free

 

Fall Leaves by Loretta Holland

Use this book during our breathing exercises or at the end of class to unwind during a guided meditation.  This book, part poem put autumn on display and captures the spirit of the changes happening this time of year.

“Autumn is in the air: days grow shorter and nights are long. Birds leave flowers, too. Apples and temperatures fall—then snow!”

GOODBYE SUMMER, HELLO FALL by Kenard Pak

Use some of our fun kids’ yoga poses with this story as the little girl in this story bids adieu to summer and welcomes fall.

HALLOWEENA  by Miriam Glassman

I found this one on our library shelf and it’s a  charming book in its own wacky witchy way.

IT’S FALL  by Linda Glasser

This simple text and bold, beautiful paper sculpture convey the animal life, plant life, weather, colors, clothing, and feelings associated with the fall season.  There are also some great fall activities included in this book.

THE FALL FESTIVAL  by Mercer Mayer

This sweet familiar book is great for shared reading with your child.  Just add a little movement with some of our fall yoga poses, like tree pose for apple picking or child’s pose for choosing the perfect.  You’ll be sure to have fun at this Fall Festival.

YELLOW TIME by Lauren Stringer

The things I love most about fall are the changing colors and this book celebrates this magical time of year.  The beauty and fun of the season this book expresses, it’s sure to become a fall favorite.

 

These books are all referenced in the resource section of our “Guided By The Light Of The Moon: A Kids Halloween Yoga Lesson Plan”.

In this lesson plan, you will learn fun kid-friendly yoga poses.
