Travel Gear Review – Yoga Travel Games for Kids by ThinkFun

One of the best things that we have living in Antigua, Guatemala is my sons’ school. It’s a Green school focusing on nature, mindfulness and a lot of outdoor activities and learning.

This past year a new subject was added to their curriculum – Yoga.

This can be a hard class since no one really knows how kids will take to it. Which was a grand surprise to see that my oldest boy absolutely LOVES it.

Since the class is only offered once per week, to add more Yoga to his life I discovered two awesome games.

And they have truly become his go-to games that also double as perfect travel games for kids that we can enjoy at any hotel.
