The enormous turnip

The big turnip is a traditional tale from the countries of Eastern Europe. There are several versions of it (like every tale). The list of characters varies. This version is inspired by different albums.

Classic of kindergarten books, it is a story with a repetitive structure. A first character shoots the turnip then we repeat each time with an additional character.

​

This effect is particularly appreciated by children when reading but also during yoga. It's like when you start to know a choreography, you feel more at ease. The student anticipates a little more with each new character. He knows what positions he will do and in what order.

​

We work in this story the positions of the warriors, some balance positions, a lot of stretching positions.
