Boston, MA -- (SBWIRE) -- 10/16/2018 -- Kids Yoga Stories and author Giselle Shardlow are thrilled to announce the official release of their newest yoga book for kids, 123 African Safari: A Kids Yoga Counting Book.

Join Baraka as he goes on a safari with his family around beautiful and exciting Tanzania, Africa. Practice your African animal poses as you drink like a zebra, cruise like an ostrich, and sleep like a lion. Learn about this spectacular country through movement while also practicing to count to fifteen. This African yoga counting book includes a list of 15 kids yoga poses and a parent-teacher guide.

Kids Yoga Stories is founded on the principle of using alternative and enjoyable activities to inspire children to want to move and exercise. Yoga, an incredibly beneficial physical discipline and exercise, has countless benefits for kids like increased flexibility and strength, stress reduction, better sleep, and improved motor skills.

"I have always been passionate about working with children throughout my world travels, and common problems I've seen in every country are childhood obesity, illiteracy, and stress," said Giselle Shardlow, author of Kids Yoga Stories. "I wanted to find a fun way to help children move past these obstacles, and creating yoga stories designed for kids was the perfect way to do it."

"My son loved this book! 123 African Safari is a delightful book that provides a creative way for kids to work on their numbers. My son loved the pictures and the yoga moves. Instead of simply sitting and going over his numbers, he was able to jump up and work through them with movement. Brilliant! I loved the story and learning a little Swahili. Giselle Shardlow has a wonderful way of introducing children to yoga and the world through her beautiful books. I'm so thrilled to have learned about Kids Yoga Stories and I can't wait to purchase more yoga books and yoga cards," says Jen, with a 5-star review.

123 African Safari: A Kids Yoga Counting Book is for ages two to five and is more than a book to help with counting—it is also a unique and beautiful learning experience for children.
