Lily and Max are friends. They like to play together. But today, Lily is restless. She does not want to play with Max's cars or dolls. She wants to do something new.
"Let's do yoga!" Lily says to Max. "Yoga is fun and good for you. You can stretch and bend and breathe."
Max does not know what yoga is. He thinks it sounds strange. He likes to run and jump and kick. He does not want to stretch and bend and breathe.
"What is yoga?" Max asks Lily. "Is it a game? Is it a toy? How do you play it?"
Lily shows Max her yoga mat. She says it is a soft place to do yoga. She rolls it out on the floor. She tells Max to sit on it with her.
"Yoga is not a game or a toy. It is a way to move your body and calm your mind. You can do different poses and follow your breath. It is easy and fun. I will show you." Lily says.
Lily starts to do some yoga poses. She does a cat pose, a dog pose, a tree pose, and a butterfly pose. She tells Max to copy her. Max tries to do the same, but he feels silly and bored. He does not like yoga. He wants to play something else.
"Yoga is not fun. It is hard and boring. I don't want to do it. Let's play something else." Max says.
Lily is sad. She likes yoga. She thinks it is fun and good for her. She wants Max to like it too. She does not want to play something else.
"Yoga is fun. It is easy and good for you. You just have to try it. Please, Max, do yoga with me." Lily says.
Max and Lily look at each other. They are friends. They do not want to make each other sad. They want to have fun together. They decide to compromise.
"OK, Lily, I will do yoga with you for a little bit. But then, you have to play with me something I like. Deal?" Max says.
"Deal, Max. Thank you for trying yoga with me. I will play with you something you like. What do you want to play?" Lily says.
Max thinks for a moment. He smiles. He has an idea.
"Let's play tag! Tag is fun and good for you. You can run and jump and chase. It is easy and fun. I will show you." Max says.
Lily agrees. She likes tag. She thinks it is fun and good for her. She wants to play with Max. She rolls up her yoga mat. She gets ready to run.
"OK, Max, let's play tag. But first, you have to catch me. I am fast and smart. You can't catch me. Ready, set, go!" Lily says.
Max and Lily start to play tag. They run and jump and chase. They laugh and shout. They have fun together. They are not restless anymore. They are happy.
