It's summer, and it's hot out! Snow Angel Pose (classical Savasana Pose) is a great way to find calm, cooling, or whatever our bodies may need. On one level, finding rest and stillness can help our bodies cool down in (try complimenting that effect with some cool water and dimming the lights!). On another, a restful pose like Snow Angel can allow us to visualize and imagine whatever might feel good for us in the present moment -- which could be making a snow angel on a beautiful snowy winter day!
Tips: In general, the older the child, the more time they'll be able to sustain rest without wanting to move and find some sort of external stimulation (children are wired to discover through exploration and play, after all). Adjust the length of time for this pose according to their age. A good guide is up to one minute per age of life, though that might need to be adjusted in certain cases. You can also try mindfulness exercises and simple meditations, such as those detailed below, to keep kids resting for longer. When you see children beginning to stir, it's likely time to lead them out of rest.
