Review and Giveaway: Move with Me Action Adventures DVD

Looking for fun kids yoga DVD’s?  The Move with Me™ Action Adventures DVD’s would be fun additions to your kids yoga materials!

Scooter and Me is a series of nine story and movement DVD’s for ages 3 – 7. 

All nine stories are about the exciting adventures of The Boy and his shiny red Scooter as they explore the world and even outer space.  Along the way, the Boy and Scooter make friends and learn cool new skills that help them be strong, make smart choices and take care of themselves. Adventure Skills are simple mind-body  integrating self-regulation techniques that help kids connect with inner resources when angry, sad, scared, confused, over-stimulated or upset.

Each DVD is 25-30 minutes and includes:

  • Warm-up
  • Story with movement
  • Relaxation
  • Skill review

See the PDF guides for each series for more info: Body Series, Heart Series, Mind Series.

Examples of  some of the “Adventure Skills”

I had the opportunity to review one of the DVD’s singles from the series “Robot Makes a New Friend on the Moon: Curiosity”

This was non-stop fun from beginning to end! I love how it includes a warm-up, storytelling with movement, teaching kids “adventure skills” they can use to self-calm & self-regulate, and relaxation. Wendy did a great job of engaging the kids in a fun way (her “robot” voice is hilarious!).  I’m hooked… can’t wait to see the rest of the action adventures!

I also had the opportunity to review one of their other DVD’s: “Yoga Playgrounds Pizza Party – A Complete Kids Yoga Class”  (ages 3-7 / 20 minutes)

This DVD was amazing too! Lisa kept the kids engaged in a calm & positive way. Here are my favorite parts: stay in your yoga body (up straight vs. slumping), the simplified sundance (the kids I work with may be able to learn this sequence), the raindance, how all the poses were simple enough for the targeted age range, and the whole making a pizza sequence was a blast!!! I love the book “Pete’s A Pizza” by William Steig & all the fun ideas in the blog post “Using Your Noodle” by Barbara Gini at Bodylogique (http://bodylogique.blogspot.com/2011/03/using-your-noodle.html). This DVD is the perfect addition to a pizza-themed kids yoga/movement group!
