Yoga for kids?

Both DC (8 and 11 with learning delay) are having trouble concentrating at school because the classroom is too noisy. I thought yoga/meditation might help them. I tried an app with them, but it was too complicated and didn't explain how to do the moves. I tried the breath day 1 from yoga with Adrienne and it was more successful, although far too long (we did the first 20 minutes) and DS found it hard to follow.

I'm looking for something more appealing for children, that's not more than 15-20 minutes a time, yet not too babyish. DS has dyspraxia, found just the sitting up and breathing exhausting, so I think this could be really good for him. I don't mind paying for an app or dvd (within reason!) but don't want to pay anything that's a subscription. Of course, free would be best! Can anyone give me some recommendations?

Have you looked at Cosmic Kids Yoga youtube channel?

Might be too young - but worth a look?

We love cosmic kids yoga on you tube. It may be too young, but they have some disney story ones, e.g. Moana and Frozen (I'm sure there are more) which may be more suitable for older children?

Agree with Cosmic yoga. Free on YouTube.

Have a look at I am zen. Katie does yoga & meditation with kids, including immediate calming exercises, and games etc as well as the yoga & meditation.

She is used to working in schools and brownie/scout groups and kids of all ages. She's doing classes online at the moment

I think we're going to try I Am Zen, I find Cosmic Kids goes too fast for me!

This is something I want to try but how young is too young for a child to learn yoga? I don't want my toddler to be bored or distract others in the online class.
