Bring a favorite story to life through movement, mindfulness, and play! This Once Upon a Mat lesson is inspired by If You Give a Mouse a Cookie and is designed to help children connect literacy and movement while building important social-emotional skills.
As you read the story, children will move through 16 story-inspired yoga poses, turning familiar moments from the book into an interactive yoga adventure.
