It's 3 celebrations in one today with the summer solstice, international yoga day and father's day! I was so grateful to be able to share a yoga practice with the community - We played a game of grumpy neighbour, practiced our tree pose and had a lot of fun connecting through play 🥰 You can find the recording here ( https://www.skool.com/connectthruplay/yoga-with-natasha?p=87171214 ). One thing I have inside The Family Yoga Club is our Yoga Games Library which has games like we played in the live class, but incase you can't catch the recording but would still like a fun yoga game to play, I thought I'd share it in text here. Mr McGregor's Garden (or Grumpy Neighbour) This game takes having some space, the length of a room, or get outside if possible (getting outside will have added benefits that will help in calming hyper children!). It can even be played in the kitchen before dinner. This is a favourite in both my classes and at home. How to play You stand at one end of the room (or a chosen point outside) and your child or children stand at the other end, leaving a decent amount of space between you. The idea here is that you are Mr McGregor and you do not want bunnies in your garden! When you are not watching they must hop like bunnies to get to the other side and tap you on the shoulder (or get to the wall). When you are looking , they must stand still in tree pose. This will help with balance and focus. You can then switch around so they can be Mr McGregor. I like to make this game super dramatic. Be as grumpy as you can, tune into that character who really does not want bunnies in his garden! I usually say "I only want to see trees in my garden." I take a walk around inspecting the trees too, this encourages children to hold the pose a little longer. Encourage them to change sides (change the standing leg). Decide with the children what the rules should be if they get caught moving. Do they have to go back to the start, go back a few steps or stay still from that moment? We want to keep this fun and if there is confusion about the rules, especially when playing with multiple children, it can take-away from the fun!

We had so much fun doing yoga with @Natasha Bryant today. While Eli didn’t quite understand everything, he had fun being a tree and a bunny. If you missed it, you can still try this at home.

For those of you who were here last week, I wanted to provide a quick update on my daughter and to thank everyone who reached out. My daughter saw the podiatrist earlier this week, no tendon damage and stitches come out in two weeks. She’s healing nicely and in good spirits. I spent the day with her today, chasing a toddler so she could rest.
