School just started and there’s a break already! The school holidays ahead offer the perfect opportunity to hit pause, reset, and reconnect—especially for kids

🧘‍♀️ Labor Day: A Well-Deserved Break

Labor Day isn’t just for grown-ups. After the whirlwind of back-to-school routines, kids need space to rest their minds, move their bodies, and release stress. A yoga session—whether at home, in a class, or at camp—can provide calm in the chaos, helping children transition into fall feeling strong, centered, and supported.

📅 Upcoming School Holiday Camps

With school closed on days like Indigenous Peoples' Day (October) and Veterans Day (November), parents are often left scrambling for something meaningful and enriching to fill the day. That’s where Kids Yoga Holiday Camps come in!

These one-day mini-retreats offer:

  • Movement and mindfulness to release tension and build strength
  • Art, music, and games rooted in yoga themes like peace, gratitude, and courage
  • Social-emotional learning and leadership skills
  • A screen-free environment where kids can connect with themselves and others

🎖️ Honoring the Meaning Behind the Day

At Veterans Day camps, we explore themes of bravery, service, and resilience through age-appropriate yoga and reflection. On Indigenous Peoples’ Day, we honor the wisdom of earth-based traditions and teach children to move with gratitude and respect for the world around them.

These holidays are more than days off—they’re opportunities for kids to grow in body, mind, and heart. Whether your child is new to yoga or a seasoned little yogi, these camps provide a fun, nurturing space to recharge and develop lifelong tools for well-being.

Explore our Kids Yoga Holiday Camps with It’s Yoga Kids® and give your child a meaningful break that supports their whole self.
