Yoga 101 in Elementary School?

It’s finally happened…a principal in the city of Chicago has drawn the line and refuses to cross it.

She has banned cookies, sugary cereals and other junk food from her school. The kids start the day with Yoga and later spend an hour in phys-ed in addition to the already scheduled recess.

Apparently parents were initially skeptical but seeing their kids turn down Doritos and other snacks with little to no nutritional value has convinced them that this is the way to go.

There is now a wait list to get in with two names for every spot available!

What is the principal doing about the freaking cold and snow?

Re: Yoga 101 in Elementary School?

Well done to the Principle

We have a chef championing proper food for kids at school in the UK

it improves concentration and makes them less hyper.

I keep thinking back to the administration that decided ketchup was good enough to be served as the "vegetable" in school lunches being served in the good 'ole US of A.

Kaleem,

You were supposed to be doing something about the cold and the snow. You're falling down on the job.

Re: Yoga 101 in Elementary School?

Muzna, only thing I do about snow and cold is that I stay away from it...I suggest others do the same.
