ThinkFun, Inc. is encouraging kids to get off the couch and move, stretch, think, and learn in a series of yoga games that can help develop agile minds and bodies.
“The idea for our yoga series developed as we looked at what we could do to improve how kids learn. Yoga can help with strength, flexibility, balance, and body awareness, but it can also help bring a sense of calm and relaxation that helps us focus, and helps our minds work better.” explained Bill Ritchie, ThinkFun, Inc.’s CEO and Co-Founder. When our bodies and minds are both calm and relaxed, we learn better.”
ThinkFun’s 2016 yoga games include:
Memory Yoga™, Ages 3 and up, two or more players, MSRP: $9.99
Memory Yoga helps preschoolers improve their balance, confidence and mental focus while boosting memory skills. With 26 illustrated cards and 18 poses, players choose a card and search for the match. Once they find it, they perform the pose.
