The Meddy Teddy Encourages Children to be Healthier and More Mindful

— May 13, 2016 — Life-Stages
The Meddy Teddy is an adorable stuffed animal that carries a powerful message for children -- even if they won't fully appreciate it until they are older. It is a yogi toy that encourages kids to lead healthier and more mindful lives, which is an invaluable lesson in this digital heavy world.

Able to take on a range of yoga poses, the Meddy Teddy can be used as a fun tool by parents and teachers to help impart the value of yoga and meditation practices. More than that, yoga itself is a great alternative to other fitness options as it teaches kids the importance of flexibility, muscle development and positive body image, amongst other things.
