Children can practice yoga, but it is not advisable to practice yoga too early. Because the child is in the stage of growth and development, the body and bones are very soft. Improper exercise will affect the development of bones and may lead to the deformation of bones. The difference between yoga and other sports is that yoga requires practitioners to concentrate their consciousness and keep their bodies in a certain posture for a period of time, so as to achieve the unity of body and mind. Such a requirement is difficult for a lively child to achieve. The medical profession believes that children born with tight muscles are not suitable for practicing yoga. If they have to practice yoga, they should consult their doctor in advance. If children are not interested in yoga, parents should not be forced.

If you must choose to practice yoga, don't follow the adult yoga books and CDs bought in the market. You need a professional coach with a medical background to guide you and arrange actions according to your child's physiological characteristics and physical development needs. Children and mothers can practice parent-child yoga together, which is a gradual process. Usually 20 minutes at a time. Children's yoga can't pursue difficult movements, and no movements can be forced. Children should be completely in a natural state of play. It should be noted that children should not practice high-temperature yoga.
