Little girl is sitting in Easy Pose (sanskrit Sukhasana).
Position
Sit down on your mat and move flash out of the sitting bones. Cross your legs in the middle of culves, extend your spine and roll your shoulders back and down. Keep your chin parallel to the floor.
Place your palms on your thighs and close your eyes. Keep your thighs relaxed but your back should be full of energy and power.
Although this called an Easy Pose, this one is not easy - it takes time while you will be able to spend sometime in it and will find your own way to realize it fully.
Good practice is to change the cross of your legs time to time.
Posture is perfect for beginning of your practice, for breath practice and meditation.
However a lot of people have tight hip joints and will need some additional props for this pose.
Props
If your knees are higher than your hips you should sit on a bolster or a block, which will help to keep this posture correct.
Also you can sit near the wall to be sure that your back is in a correct position.
Benefits
keeping your spine and back muscles strong
concentration
extremely healthful for nervous system
Contraindications
Knees injury
