Yogi Cubs: Integrating Yoga, Mindfulness, and STEM for Daycares

At Yogi Cubs, we believe early childhood is the perfect time to foster mindful movement and a love for learning. By combining the physical and emotional benefits of yoga with STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math) concepts, Yogi Cubs creates a unique, engaging program tailored to young learners in daycares and early education centers.

Through age-appropriate activities, we help children develop focus, creativity, and problem-solving skills while promoting physical health, emotional resilience, and curiosity about the world around them.

Program Overview

Mindful STEM Yoga:

Yogi Cubs incorporates simple, fun STEM lessons into yoga sessions, helping children connect movement and mindfulness with foundational STEM concepts:

Science: Explore the natural world through movement, such as imitating animals, learning about the water cycle, or the importance of breathing (air).
Technology: Introduce basic tools or technology concepts, like balance or force, to build awareness of how things work.
Engineering: Use props like blocks or mats to create simple structures, teaching problem-solving through play.
Math: Incorporate counting, shapes, and spatial awareness into poses and sequences.
