:: Yes!


Mine is 2 hours. Sometimes 2.5 if everyone is still asleep. All 2-year-olds that were here in the past and are currently here fall asleep first and sleep all the way until I am turning on music and opening blinds. I've had about 7+ two-year-olds here in the past year or so. I would cry if they didn't want to sleep LOL!

Exactly!!! This is my most difficult child. She is here for a full 10 hrs a day, by naptime we both need a quiet time to continue through the day.

FOREVERRRRR! ::
My naptime lasts from 12- 3. Not all kids fall asleep immediately and some stir before like 2:30 but generally, play hard, sleep hard!

This is me too.....and it is often 12:30 when they go down and sometimes they are up at 2:30. Older kids are allowed to read or do quiet activities. If a child has had a hard day I will let them sleep till no later then 3:30 but most of the time they are up between 2:30 and 3

I start lunch at 11:30ish, then we do clean up, potty and soft music while I clean the rest of lunch up and prep for afternoon. Then I jump on here to visit with all of you for a little bit.
