Partner Pose: Wheel
Kids love to perform the wheel pose. This pose is great for stretching the abs, strengthening the spine, and helps bring blood and oxygen to the brain. It's very challenging and thus gives kids a boost of confidence when they are successful at it. This pose is great to do with a partner, as each person can take turns being either the wheel or the mouse supporting the wheel. The mouse pose is a good counter stretch to the wheel, another benefit of doing these two poses together.
