For the little yogis and yoginis in your life, this CD compilation contains a range of songs to help make the practice of yoga easier and fun. It’s perfect for kids aged 3 to 99.

Fun Songs combines Wai Lana’s beautiful, inspiring vocals with the finest musicians. Accompanying the CD is a beautifully illustrated songbook packed with favorite Little Yogi characters and complete song lyrics.

Playability
I took the CD to my arts classroom last week and so far it is the only CD that we have used through the whole week. The children are 4 years old and just love every single song. They don’t want to listen to any other CD. It is fun to listen to the songs while at the same time learning about animals and trees.

Recommendation
This is a great CD for teachers to use in their classrooms, or for parents to share with their children.

This colorful book and CD set includes twelve songs that will have children singing and moving along to the bouncy rhythms and catchy lyrics. Children will be having fun while learning simple safe breathing and relaxation exercises and practicing simple yoga moves.

Children will bounce, giggle, and move through a lively adventure that has them becoming a cat, a dog, and a cobra. They will roar like a lion, build a bridge with their body, and rock on their backs like a stuck beetle. The journey takes children through the jungle, the mountains, and the beach as they move to the music.

The first ten songs are bouncy and silly, while the last two songs are relaxing and calm, encouraging peaceful visualization and rest. Fans of Wai Lana, the popular host of the PBS series Wai Lana Yoga, will recognize some of these songs from her other Little Yogis videos and CDs. Her distinctive voice sings each song and invites children to join in the movements.

The songs are fun to listen to even without moving along. The book has all of the words, encouraging young readers to follow along, while younger children will enjoy the bright illustrations of smiling caterpillars and colorful animals.
