除了送孩子去學校，我們還可以為孩子做什麼？

親子Time

當我們在家裡練習瑜伽，孩子們，幾乎不可避免地會妨礙父母的瑜伽練習。所以自然而然的，我們可以邀請我們的孩子來到瑜伽墊上。這並不是很難，我們的孩子想參與到我們的練習中，這很好也很受歡迎。

When we practice at home, Kids, almost inevitably, can get in the way of a parent"s yoga practice.It was only natural for us to invite our children on the mat. It wasn』t a hard sell—our kids wanted to be a part of our yoga, which was great and very welcome.

如果我們的孩子表現出對瑜伽感興趣的跡象，我們為您和孩子一起做瑜珈提供6個技巧。

If our kids are any indication, we are offering 6 tips for doing yoga with your kids.

1.著重於基礎

1. Focus on the basics.

孩子們喜歡下犬式、樹式、勇士(2)式，和簡單的動作。通常這些都是很好的入門開始。

Kids love Downward-Facing Dog, Tree Pose, Warrior II, and Easy Pose. These are great beginner poses, in general.

樹式讓你和孩子得到很棒的單腿平衡練習。像樹一樣前期你們的手，組成一座森林。這是一個可以幫助孩子練習平衡的有趣方法，同時還可以建立他們對自己能力的自信心。

Tree Pose is a great single-leg balance to practice with your children. Hold hands to link your trees together and create a forest. This is a fun way to help your kids balance while building their confidence in their abilities.

2.讓他們給你驚喜

2. Let them surprise you.

教他們該做動作，如果他們的姿勢並不完美，不要煩惱。你的孩子可能會給你驚喜。

Teach them what they should be doing, and don』t fret if their poses aren"t perfect. Your kids may surprise you.

3.模仿動物的姿勢

3. Play with animal poses.

把注意力集中在像駱駝、蝴蝶、眼鏡蛇、貓/牛等動物的姿勢上，這些姿勢會和孩子們產生共鳴，這些姿勢會讓他們變得更愛玩、更調皮。

Consider focusing on the animal-named poses like Camel, Butterfly (Bound Angle Pose), Cobra, Cat/Cow, etc. These postures will resonate with them and are ones that will allow them to be more playful and silly.

駱駝式是一個具有挑戰性的背部彎曲姿勢，但好的方面是它可以對孩子進行矯正，就像它可以對成人進行矯正一樣。開始跪地，大腿垂直於地板，雙手往後伸展，手指指向下方。抬起你的胸部向後彎曲，不要倒到後面去。如果你的孩子想要完整的嘗試一下這個姿勢，第一次時鼓勵他們嘗試用他們的腳趾和腳跟抬起。慢慢地伸出一隻手，抓住每一個腳跟。如果進展順利，他們可以試著用腳趾鬆開。無論他們嘗試哪一個版本，只要確保他們是安全的，玩得很開心就沒問題。

Camel Pose is a challenging backbend, but the good news is that it can be modified for kids in the same way that it can be modified for adults. Begin in a kneeling position with the thighs perpendicular to the floor, place your hands onto your lower back, fingers pointed down. Lift your chest and create an even backbend, avoiding collapsing into the lower back. If your children would like to attempt the full expression of the pose, encourage them to first try the pose with their toes tucked and heels lifted. Slowly reach one hand back at a time to hold each heel. If that goes well, they can try the version with toes untucked. Whichever version they attempt, just make sure that they are safe and having a good time.

4.增添樂趣

4. Add modifications to make it extra fun.

孩子天生就很靈活，所以他們會喜歡眼鏡蛇式——尤其是當你叫他們試著用腳趾頭碰他們的頭的時候!與媽媽合作會讓一切更有趣。

Kids are naturally flexible so they love Cobra Pose—especially if you ask them to try to touch their toes to their head! Partnering with mom makes it extra fun.

5.不要期望他們做完整練習

5. Don"t expect them to do a full practice.

我們知道這聽起來很明顯，但當我們的孩子開始加入我們的時候，我們以為他們會喜歡上瑜伽並練習30 - 45分鐘。錯了！10歲以下兒童的注意力通常無法集中那麼長時間，但他們可以在墊子上保持5 - 10分鐘，所以，從簡短的動作開始。

We know this sounds obvious, but when our kids started to join us, we thought they would just fall in love with yoga and practice for a full 30–45 minutes. WRONG. Children under the age of 10 do not typically have the attention span, but they can manage 5–10 minutes on the mat. So, start with small intervals of time.

6.給孩子屬於他們自己的裝備

6. Get them their own yoga gear.

儘管我們不了解你的孩子，但這些小可愛也渴望有自己的空間和他們自己的東西。這些有趣的瑜伽墊為孩子們帶來了快樂，讓你的小傢伙們感覺自己長大了——而且你也不必分享你的墊子了。

We don』t know about your kids, but ours love to have their own space and their own stuff. These fun yoga mats for kids from Gaiam will make your little ones feel grown up—and you won』t have to share your mat!
