yoga dice


A friend of mine, a mother of four, makes amazingly beautiful jewelry out of wood and copper and rope and other naturally found elements. I was looking through her etsy site, https://www.etsy.com/shop/averyrayne and I saw three wooden blocks that she burned images on and she was selling them as storytelling dice. There was a sun on one side, a moon on one, a house, a mushroom, some circles...and once rolled, whichever images came up, children could use the images as inspiration to create a story. So cute!

Then I thought, if they had yoga poses on them, what a fun game that would be. So I emailed her and asked her if she could make me some, and she created these:

Each kid in class gets a turn with the dice. They roll them, and together, we all do whichever asanas show up on the dice.
