ping pong push

After setting up goals with yoga blocks on one side of the room, I set the kids up on the opposite side of the room, giving them each a ping pong ball and a straw. They have to blow through the straw and get the ping pong balls across the room and into their goal. 

They love it.

This game is some simple pranayama practice and helps them learn how to control their breath; exhale too hard and the ball goes way far away, exhale too softly and you'll never make it to the other side of the room. Plus they are army crawling around, using their tummy and lower back muscles.
