Rest and relaxation are also extremely important for children. The Tonie llama Sara might help your kids with this - by teaching them yoga exercises in a playful way.
Ooooooommm! If you hear this sound coming from the children's room more often soon, the Toniebox is back in action - and encouraging your kids to exercise and relax. With "Lama Sara", the audio box manufacturer presents an audio figure that not only tells stories, but also instructs yoga exercises. The snow-white llama tells two 30-minute stories and encourages simple, classic yoga exercises. The Tonie is suitable for ages four and up. According to Tonies, it is designed to help young listeners "feel and understand themselves, their bodies and their senses better".
Relaxation for children
The llama is another Tonies in-house production. Maja Mast, a children's yoga teacher from Stuttgart, helped the company develop the audio figure. "In order for children to be able to feel themselves, they need time and, ideally, small daily time-outs in which they can train their self-awareness," explains the expert. This can be achieved through simple yoga or breathing exercises. "Children's yoga focuses on body awareness and mindful perception of their own thoughts and emotions," says Mast. However, children first have to learn to follow their own inner voice and recognise their needs. Children's yoga helps them to do this.
However, it is not yet clear exactly which exercises the Tonie will encourage your children to do. However, the list of titles on the website suggests lots of fun and movement: "The little sun salute", "The llama warriors" or "The frog that jumps" are the names of the chapters, for example.
According to Tonies, the llama yoga figure will be available from 9 August 2023. You can also find it in our shop from 8 August.
