Yoga is a decades-old form of self-care—and it's not just for adults. Our article on the "Importance of Yoga & Mindfulness in Early Childhood" highlights that in kids, yoga can improve balance, strength, and flexibility while also helping them manage their emotions and become more mindful.
With the long-term health benefits your kids can reap from yoga, you're probably wondering how to help them fall in love with it. One innovative resource you can turn to is the ebook, as it can effectively teach your kids about yoga. Below, we will examine the benefits of an ebook and list a few of the best titles your kids can start with.
Why are ebooks effective for teaching kids about yoga?
Today's kids are undeniably digital natives, with a United States Census finding that 4 out of 5 households with children own a tablet. This means that they will be very comfortable using and learning from an ebook. Some ebooks are also interactive, which helps children learn through actionable content rather than just passively engaging with the material.
Another advantage of the ebook is the level of accessibility it gives readers, especially with the rise of affordable subscription services. The digital ebook library on Everand provides access to plenty of material on yoga, with over 100,000 related ebook titles available. Some of the most popular titles include "Yoga: A Manual for Life" by Naomi Annand and "Yoga for Beginners" by Jessica Thompson in just a few clicks. More importantly, these services will have many yoga books just for kids, making digital libraries a great resource for them to learn and fall in love with yoga.
And with more digital tools available to enhance the reading experience, you won’t have to worry about keeping your kids engaged, either.
