Otroci so danes prav tako kot odrasli podvrženi stresu in zato je uvajanje različnih metod sproščanja že v predšolskem obdobju zelo pomembno. Ena od metod, ki sem se ji posvetila v svojem diplomskem delu, je joga. V teoretičnem delu sem opisala, kaj je stres, kako se kaže in kakšne posledice ima pri otrocih. Predstavila sem pomen sproščanja in različne metode sproščanja. Poudarila sem pomen gibanja in uporabe vseh čutov na poti do sprostitve. Na kratko sem opisala, kaj je joga, od kod izvira, katere vrste joge poznamo in kakšne so njene koristi. Poudarila sem tudi pomen dihanja v jogi in asane, kar je ime za jogijske položaje. Zapisala sem nekaj napotkov za vadbo joge z otroki, starimi od 3 do 6 let, saj se ta pomembno razlikuje od vadbe joge pri odraslih. Predstavila sem, kaj je pravljična joga, ter navedla oblike in metode dela, ki jih uporabljamo pri izvajanju dejavnosti, povezanih z jogo. Jogo pa sem povezala tudi s Kurikulumom za vrtce (1999) in za vsako področje zapisala cilje, ki jih lahko z jogo uresničujemo. V empiričnem delu sem opisala projekt Pravljična joga, ki sem ga izvedla z otroki, starimi od 5 do 6 let. Omogočila sem jim, da so samostojno raziskovali jogo skozi različne igre, dihalne vaje in pravljice. Znanje, ki so ga pridobili skozi projekt, so na koncu uporabili tako, da so sami pripravili dramatizacijo. Izmislili so si zgodbo, določili vloge, izdelali kostume in zgodbo zaigrali otrokom iz druge skupine. Na ta način so jim predstavili nekaj jogijskih položajev in jih spodbudili, da bi začeli vaditi jogo tudi oni. Za vsak dan, ko smo izvajali jogo, sem zapisala cilje in opisala, kako so dejavnosti potekale. Spremljala sem odzive otrok in ob vsaki dejavnosti zapisala tudi analizo, vse skupaj pa opremila še s fotografijami za večjo nazornost. Odzivi otrok na vpeljavo pravljične joge so bili zelo pozitivni. Ob dejavnostih so uživali in se sprostili. Poleg tega pa so med seboj tudi sodelovali in si pomagali pri izvedbi različnih vaj. Nowadays both children and adults experience stress, which means that it is important to start introducing different relaxation methods as early as in the preschool period. This thesis focuses on yoga as one of relaxation methods. The theoretical part defines stress, its symptoms and consequences in children. It also discusses the significance of relaxation, different relaxation methods and the importance of physical activity and using all the senses on the path to relaxation. Moreover, it provides a brief description of yoga, its origins, types and benefits, and touches on the relevance of breathing in yoga and asanas, i.e. yoga postures. The thesis contains guidelines for yoga with children aged from 3 to 6 years because it is significantly different from yoga for adults. It presents the concept of storytime yoga and the forms and methods of work in yoga-related activities. It connects yoga with the kindergarten curriculum (1999) and defines the goals of each area that can be attained through yoga. As for the empirical part of the thesis, it presents the Storytime Yoga project we conducted with children aged from 5 to 6 years. The children were able to independently explore yoga through various games, breathing exercises and stories. They used the knowledge they obtained in the process and prepared their own dramatization of a story. They thought of a story, assigned the roles and performed it to the children from another group, thereby showing some yoga postures and encouraging them to star practicing it. We devised the goals and the course of the activities for each day that involved yoga. We also monitored the children's reactions, analysed all activities and added pictures for a more thorough presentation. Children responded positively to the introduction of storytime yoga and enjoyed the relaxing activities. In addition, they worked together and helped one another in practicing various exercises.
