Lazy Lizards Yoga Mat & DVD Review
This was such a fun review for me. I am reviewing the Lazy Lizards Yoga Mat & DVD. My son got to participate a lot more than usual because it was a Children's Yoga Mat & DVD. I was worried that he wouldn't be able to do many of the yoga poses but the teacher in the DVD was fantastic. The poses were simple and explained really well for children, and she made it fun. He really enjoyed watching the other kids participating. It also was the perfect length. No toddler sits for very long and my son is no exception. He has a really hard time sitting still but the the DVD lasted about 30 minutes which was the perfect length for a child's attention level. They also have a few bonus songs and games which is nice for an older child.

Now lets talk about the mat! The mat is wonderful and made with real quality. It's the best quality children's yoga mat I have ever seen actually! It's not too thin and flimsy but it's also not overly cushioned which can cause injuries and make it harder to do the poses. It comes in four colors: blue, green, purple, and pink. It's also eco-friendly. It's lead and phthalate free! My favorite part about this mat is the cute designs on it that correlate with the video. They have 12 pictures on the mat that represent different poses including the down dog, and the lazy lizard. It's a great idea so the kids can see the poses on their mat. It's a simple design but perfect again for a toddler and young child. It also has a place to write your childs' name so they don't lose it. The size is great too! When I knew we were reviewing a child's yoga mat, I expected it to be really small but it wasn't. It is big enough for any child and has room to grow. I also love the non slip grip.
So, why should kids try yoga? Well for one, it's fun! I love doing it with my son. It also can help release energy and calm the body and mind. It's wholesome, strengthening, calming, and safe.

| I have to say that I am pretty sold on this product. I really did enjoy the DVD and found it to be really helpful, simple, and perfect for kids. The only critique for this product is it would be nice to have a carrying strap or a case to travel with. I'm sure you could purchase a case that would work fine but Lazy Lizards does not sell or offer one. I did have to help my little guy, Logen with some of the poses and he did have to take a few breaks in between because he has a hard time sitting still but he is also a little younger than the recommended age. The recommended age is 3 and up and my little guy is 2. All in all, I think this is the perfect gift, activity, and the best yoga mat and DVD for kids. great job Lazy Lizards Yoga! |
