Jump on the band wagon and give this singing time yoga (also known as position cards) a try! They provide the best movement for your Primary as you review ANY Primary songs!
Jeri shared her original idea on the Primary Music Leaders Facebook group HERE. But now I’ve digitized the yoga cards for easy downloading!!
Singing Time Yoga Cards
There are 12 pages (24 cards) with various yoga positions available to download:
Access these printables at my Resource Library. Instructions for accessing the Resource Library are found at the bottom of this post.
I printed mine on white card stock, cut in half and laminated (optional). You can also punch a hole in the top corners and add a book binder ring to make for easy flipping.
Make sure to check out all the singing time supplies I recommend you always have on hand HERE.
No Printer, No Problem!
If you need, these can easily be hand-drawn on sheets of printer paper!
Singing Time Idea
TIP: move on to the next position card when everyone is in place and singing.
Another variation is to assign each word a position so when that song is sung, everyone moves quickly into that pose. Fun!
Singing Time Elf Yoga
Try this Christmas variation HERE called Elf Yoga too!!
Check out this quick tutorial video for accessing the Resource Library:
These printables are filed on my Resource Library page under Category Title > Yoga (aka Position Cards).

Beautiful!
Love this idea! Especially for junior primary.
Love it! What did you use to make them? I have a couple more in mind I want to make and I'm a little OCD and really "need" them to look the same as these that I've downloaded. 😉
Thanks Rebecca! I use a software called MDS. I'd totally love to make more! When I used them I wished I had almost double the amount but ran out of ideas! If you could somehow send me the positions, I'll totally make more and get them posted. Maybe email me via my "contact tab" above and we can be in touch that way. I'll try to work on it this week.

I’m trying to print the primary yoga cards, but can’t for some reason. Any suggestions?
Hi Dorothy!
I’ve emailed you the link. Make sure you are logged in to a gmail/Google account too.

Can you email them to me too. Love the idea!
Hi Cindy!
The easiest way to access these is through my Resource Library. They are filed on my Resource Library under Category Title > Position cards.

What a fun idea! Can't wait to try it. Thanks for sharing!
Thank you so much! I love these and can't wait to use them in Singing Time and with the Nursery!!!!
I'm using these today! Thank you so much! Such a quick and easy motion activity that you can apply to any song!
This is definitely a new favorite. Did it today for the first time and we were all having a blast. The one where you have to link arms with someone else is especially hilarious to be standing and watching from the front. Thanks so much for this post, Camille! Steph
Hoping this works with my combined Primary as a movement (wiggle) song! My plan is to use these with the Books of the OT, and change positions after every five or so books. Thanks for sharing!
Thank you for these! I used them in Primary Olympics. I just posted about it and linked back to this post… I wanted you to know and make sure that was ok with you! Thanks again for sharing your talents! 🙂

Anytime! Thank you!!

I love these!!! I used them when I was a chorister and now I use them to get wiggles out before sharing time!! Thank you for sharing your brilliance!
My combined primary LOVES these! I have a child come to the front and pick from the stack of positions and I assign it to a word in the song. Every time we sing through the song I add another position assigned to a different word. It is a great, fun way to sing a song over and over without the kids getting bored! It’s also funny to see everyone scramble from position to position when you start stacking more than 3 cards!
Hi Crystal!
What a fun idea! I totally love it!! Thank you for sharing, I’ll have to use it!

Hello! Help please! I am having trouble downloading the position cards. Could you possibly send them to my email! Thank you for all of your wonderful ideas! I appreciate you so much!
Hi Laura!
I’ve emailed you. I hope that helps.
