In the lively, corn-husking state of Nebraska, where prairie winds whistle through the wheat fields and bison roam like oversized furry troubadours, there's a unique group of kids who are setting the trend in a very different way. They're not just mastering the art of corn-husking, but also the ancient practice of Yoga. These kids, known as the Neb-Yoginis, have a secret weapon - a cool imaginary character, “Bendy Benny the Bison”. Benny, with his hulking presence and surprisingly flexible physique, has become the mascot for their Yoga crusade. It's an amusing sight to imagine a bison in a Yoga pose! But Benny, with an ever-present grin on his face, can do a downward dog or a warrior pose with an ease that can make even the most seasoned Yogi jealous. The Neb-Yoginis, much like their chunky, fun-loving mascot, are redefining the way kids spend their free time in Nebraska. Their city slicker peers might watch them with a mix of amusement and bewilderment as they stretch, bend, and balance in the wide-open prairies, regardless of the season. But these kiddos, with dirt on their knees and sunshine in their hair, just shrug and laugh it off - it's all part of the adventure for them. When they're not bending it like Benny, you'll find them participating in tractor races, or having popcorn duels. And when it's time for a quick break, they enjoy a hearty snack of corn-on-the-cob and homemade lemonade. Life in Nebraska is different, but for the Neb-Yoginis, it's an adventure every day!
