As everyone knows I have a group that consists of pretty much non nappers.
Watching these kids through the day has made me start wondering-how do you know if a child is ADD (should be brought to parents attention) or just busy.
Some of them just seem jittery and restless no matter what kind of activity we do. There is no exhaustion level at naptime or even tired level. Alot of these kids are up at 6:00 and going to bed at 8:00-8:30. Eat healthy, routines in the evenings and on board parenting. Alot of the parents think they have outgrown naps but I really wonder if there is something else going on.
Right now I have 2 out of 6 asleep and we are 45 min into naptime. Its actually quiet though, most of the time I will have most of them talking through the entire, entire naptime and not let up.
So how do you know to be concerned or not?
