The kit includes ten double‑sided yoga pose cards plus a character card and a getting started guide. A handy hand pump helps you set up quickly, and a built‑in pocket keeps cards organized and within reach during activities. This setup makes it simple to lead short sessions that combine movement, breath, and focus without fuss.

• Storage and care: a pocket to store cards and a dedicated space for quick access

Designed for ages 3 and up, this buddy is well suited for home practice, classroom calm‑down corners, or playrooms where kids need movement, mindful play, and sensory‑friendly fun.
