Easy Yoga Game to Combine Movement, Mindfulness, and Math for Students

Giselle · July 11, 2022 ·

easy yoga games ideas | Kids Yoga Stories

Today, we would love to introduce you to our newest Kids Yoga Stories Ambassador, Angie Morton-Locke. She is the founder of Believe In and a yoga instructor from Canada. She currently offers yoga, wellness, and mindfulness classes to schools via video. 

She shared a super-easy way to integrate yoga and breathing into your student’s day in a fun and engaging way…. with a small sprinkle of math thrown in for good measure. 😉


Fun Friday “Odd or Even” Yoga Dice Game

What You Need:

  • 24 Yoga Poses Poster (free resource available here)
  • List of breathing exercises you have sourced, or you can use our Breathing Exercises for Kids
  • 2 Dice

How to Play:

Step #1 – Resources Ready

Have your resources printed off or viewable on a device.

Step #2 – Roll the Dice

One child rolls the dice.
The group can decide what the two dice add up to. 

For example, if she/he rolled a 4 and a 3, then the number would be 7.

Step #3 – Determine if Even or Odd

Whether the sum is even or odd will determine your next steps. 

For even numbers, you choose one yoga pose from the 24 Yoga Poster for the children to do.

For odd numbers, you choose one breathing exercise.

Step #4 – Move and Breathe 

Do the yoga or mindfulness exercises and repeat. 

As Angie shared, it’s a great way to introduce both yoga and mindfulness to children in a variety of ways during the same session.

Welcome

Giselle Shardlow Profile Image Welcome to Kids Yoga Stories. To create the yoga books, yoga and breathing card decks, and yoga and mindfulness classroom resources, I draw from my experience as an international teacher, a world traveler, a certified yoga teacher, and a mom to a spirited child. I’ve been practicing yoga practically my whole life, and after I became a mom, I fell in love with the idea of sharing yoga and mindfulness with my daughter. Read more.
