So Many Squash!

We pretended to be a variety of squash this week in Nutrition Expedition, all while practicing yoga! 

I picked a handful of poses to represent each type of squash. Some were pretty challenging, but I always remind the children that if it doesn't feel comfortable, not to push themselves too hard, and I give them an alternative way to accomplish the pose. 

Butternut Squash (Mountain Pose)

Acorn Squash (Tree Pose)

Spaghetti Squash (Hedgehog Pose)

Pumpkin (Bow Pose)

Kabocha Squash (Butterfly Pose)

Hubbard Squash (Camel Pose)

Crookneck/Gooseneck Squash (Gate Pose)

Super Sleuth Question

1. What was your favorite squash pose?

2. Was it easy or tricky/challenging?
