Just Play by E.CO

If you haven’t already, please follow my new page 🥰🧘‍♀️

Just Play by E.CO An active bag that takes the planning work out of movement and mindful based activities for you and your family. Each bag is themed and contains movement cards that are yoga-esque (think fun yoga or movement) along with playful props that allow you and your family to play together anytime, anywhere.

I have a new venture I wanted to share as it pertains to anyone who is interested in being active and mindful with their families and now it is more accessible since I am giving you the tools and how to step by step. Please check out my new page and follow me here and/or on Instagram @justplaybyeco. 🙏❤️ 🧘‍♀️

I’ve taken a little break from my social media business page, but I’m back with a really easy, fun, meaningful project I did with my classes today. A Thankful Pumpkin- the children didn’t even hesitate when asked what they were thankful for. If you do this at home, you can do a week countdown to Thanksgiving adding things everyday or you can do this at Thanksgiving dinner which is a great conversation starter 🎃🙏🧘❤️

It’s Friday! If you are looking for a fun, easy, family activity, I have come up with this one for you. I am always trying to think of new ways to engage my kids in cleaning up, playing with each other or just using their imagination. So this activity came to mind. As we are tidying the house later on, I am going to ask the kids to put aside 2 items each, so 4 total and then give them 15 minutes to see what they can come up with. You can give them a little direction after they have chosen the items; maybe it’s a game? maybe it’s art? maybe a family activity? I would love to see what you come up with and I will share what my kids think of too!

I look forward to seeing you there!

Happy first day of Fall! 🍁 Thinking of healthy, fast and fun lunches for kids isn’t always easy, especially when we are rushing around in the morning routine. A little planning ahead and some inspiration (I got mine at Trader Joe’s) goes a long way. Details below with close up in the comments along with photos of the food packages I used. Teachers need lots of appreciation, so I included a small pumpkin 🎃 to kick off the season. I would love to see what you do! Please share below. 🙏❤️🧘‍♀️

I’m excited for this class on Saturday. Please ensure you RSVP as space is limited. 🧘‍♀️❤️

We had a tropical 🌴 storm ☔️ warning this weekend, so not the best time to be outside. I wanted to get their bodies moving so we practiced partner poses which are not only fun and keep them active, but teach them team work and problem solving. We had lots of laughs and they got a great work out in 🧘‍♀️❤️

❤️🙏 🧘‍♀️

I tell little humans how to move their arms and legs. Make their chest big and small and not kick each other in the head or wipe their boogers on the little human next to them. Then we move our bodies to a sound 🎶 and everyone laughs 😆 and claps 👏 🧘‍♀️ 😬

So sometimes family activities don’t go as planned. Below is what I thought today’s bike ride would be versus what it was. But we shook it off and decided a long bike ride in the middle of the summer was not a good idea to do again. Moral of the story, social media vs reality are two very different things. Share some of your planned family activities versus reality. 👦🏼 👧🏼 ❤️

Happy Summer! Wouldn’t it be great if they were this calm all day? 🤪🧘‍♀️ ☀️ ❤️

Did you ever have a moment of happiness that caught you by surprise? Yesterday, as I looked over at my passenger seat I had that moment. It’s been over a year since I taught children’s yoga and I knew I missed it, but realized how much my soul needed to be back with the children after teaching at Preschool of the Arts summer camp. So grateful to share my love for yoga and mindfulness with these littles ❤️ (disclaimer: the boxing 🥊 gloves are not used with the children 🤪. They were for a class I took afterwards 😀). Exciting new announcements are in the works! 🎊

Children are never too young to practice yoga. It’s gives them the foundation they need to deal with all that life throws at them. 🧘‍♀️ Watch this space- new things coming soon! 🙏❤️

I took quite a long break from teaching children’s classes and then when I was ready to start teaching your little ones again, the pandemic hit. The current situation has allowed me time to rethink how I can practice yoga with you and your family; I can bring it to you with private and semi-private classes that I can teach in your home, your clubhouse or an outdoor space (weather permitting). Please private message me so we can discuss the details. I look forward to seeing your faces again! 🧘‍♀️ 💕

Thank you to everyone who came out to Children's Museum of Naples today for class with us. Fall on the Farm had surprise chicken guests who were super friendly and great with the kids.

Please join us for this fun and truly important event for children in need. 🎒 🏫 🖊 ✏️ 📓. You can donate supplies at any point leading up to the event at Athleta in Waterside Shops and get a $10 shop card that you can use immediately.

I had such a great time teaching at Children's Museum of Naples yesterday. Thank you to all who attended. I will be there again on August 25th and September 29th with new themes for the classes. See you there 🧘‍♀️❤️

I’m really looking forward to teaching at Children's Museum of Naples tomorrow morning at 10am. See you there! 🧘‍♀️❤️

Send A Kid to Camp Wellness Event

Every child deserves the opportunity to have special memories from summer and to be kept in a fun, joyful environment while their parents are hard at work.
