Downward Dog

Squirmy and I started doing Yoga together
Right after he gets out of the bath before his bed time story
This wonderful lady named Helen Garabedian came up with this "Parent Led Yoga" which just means you do the yoga for them; stretching there legs out ect
she has an awesome book called
ITSY BITSY YOGA [poses to help your baby sleep longer, digest better and grow stronger]
They do have classes you can go to but none in UTAH sad for Squirmy and I
but if you are not a fellow Utahian you can go here to see if your state has one
Sense we can't go to a class I turned to the trusty old YOUTUBE to see if some one had video tapped a class I could learn from
** ASK AND YOU SHALL RECEIVE **
they do all there yoga by song so I choose if you
HAPPY AND YOU KNOW IT
The Song goes like this [you just do the movements the song says for the baby]
IF your happy and you know it stretch your legs
**CLAP CLAP**
IF your happy and you know it stretch your legs
** CLAP CLAP**
IF your happy and you know it and you really want to show it if you happy and you know it
Stretch your legs
IF your happy and you know it Touch your nose
**CLAP CLAP**
IF your happy and you know it
Touch your nose
** CLAP CLAP**
IF your happy and you know it and you really want to show it if you happy and you know it
Touch your nose
IF your happy and you know it Wiggle your hips
**CLAP CLAP**
IF your happy and you know it
Wiggle your hips
** CLAP CLAP**
IF your happy and you know it and you really want to show it if you happy and you know it
Wiggle your hips
IF your happy and you know it Tickle the tummy
**CLAP CLAP**
IF your happy and you know it
Tickle the tummy
** CLAP CLAP**
IF your happy and you know it and you really want to show it if you happy and you know it
Tickle the tummy
IF your happy and you know it clap your feet
**CLAP CLAP**
IF your happy and you know it
clap your feet
** CLAP CLAP**
IF your happy and you know it and you really want to show it if you happy and you know it
clap your feet

Here is the video to help clarify the movements you should do


Squirmy laughs through the entire thing and even helps me touch his feet to his nose
then he is out like a light as soon as we put him in the crib !
Happy yoga-ing
