WHAT IT IS
Yogapalooza‘s Puppypalooza is a large plush pup with bendable extremities. Families can implement calming yoga practices into playtime by bending the plush’s arms and legs into different yoga poses, including Mountain Pose, Tree Pose, Butterfly Pose, and Downward Dog, and having kids follow along. The plush is soft and cuddly, making it a relaxing addition to naptime or bedtime routines.

WHY WE LOVE IT
Little ones can engage in calming techniques by following Puppypalooza in yoga sequences. Kids will strengthen their gross motor skills while developing helpful breathing techniques by mirroring the Puppy Yoga Pose Guide. Families can use the plush to establish wind-down routines, teach littles how to regulate emotions, and implement MESH (mental, emotional, social health) play.
Parents can further integrate the plush character into playtime with the picture book Peaceful Puppy Palooza (sold separately), which features the puppy implementing mindful practices and easy-to-learn poses into their day.
IMPORTANT THINGS TO KNOW
Families can supplement peaceful play with Yogapalooza’s additional resources, including a Feelings Chart.
