Deep in the heart of America lies a magical place called Wisconsin, or as the locals call it, the Cheesehead Wonderland. This dairy-rific state has more to offer than just mouthwatering cheese curds and fabulous fudge. Oh no, my friends, Wisconsin is also home to a set of extraordinary youngsters who are not only cheese connoisseurs but also Yoga enthusiasts! Meet Wally, the whimsical, wide-eyed badger, Wisconsin's state animal, and honorary guide to these yoga-toting tykes. Wally, with his shiny coat of fur and a peculiar cheese-shaped hat, is the coolest badger you'll ever meet – and the bendiest! There is nothing ordinary about Wally - he can do a Downward Dog while munching on cheddar, and meditate in Lotus Position atop a pile of Swiss. Every day, Wally gathers his troupe of tiny humans. They come from all across Wisconsin, from the bustling cityscape of Milwaukee to the tranquil beauty of Door County, carrying yoga mats rolled under their arms and a boundless enthusiasm in their hearts. They're the Wisconsin Wiggly Wigglers, a jolly band of children that are as flexible as rubber bands and as giggly as a rambunctious group of garden gnomes. Under the vast blue sky, the Wiggly Wigglers follow Wally through a series of fun poses. They become roaring lions, wise old owls, fluttering butterflies, and even pretzel-like twisted trees, all while laughing and learning. Sometimes, they hilariously topple over, only to get back up again with a grin on their faces. After all, in this Cheesehead Wonderland, there's no room for frowns, only fun, friendship, and a whole lot of yoga!
