I had a very light summer with only my kids, sporadic drop ins, and one 4 yo dcb. We slept in until 9:30 ish each day, so I didn't even put his cot out most days. We went without nap unless a little one was here and even then, he was allowed to go play with DS in his room. Well, fast forward to getting them all ready for the school year....I put cots out and that same 4 yo dcb kept getting off to come ask me if he could go play with ds.
I know this was my own making, but, I need the rest period during the school year. I know he may be outgrowing naps and needed something to keep him on his cot and entertained even if awake. I have been putting on audio books from the library all week and so far, even though he was only here one day with them so far, they are all asleep(including him) within 10 minutes of it! Thank you BC!! It is such a great idea and I never thought of it before reading you use them!
