But he really needs one. She tried letting him sleep but he won't fall asleep when the other kids are awake.
He comes home at 3, exhausted and cranky. So far I've tried:
Giving him a nap from 3-4/4:30. He wakes up tired and cranky, doesn't want to eat dinner, but goes to sleep nicely (at 7:30/8 instead of the usual 7).
Or keep him awake as long as possible (today it was until 5:30) (and deal with the kvetchiness), then put him into bed for the night-but he's too overtired to fall asleep nicely, and he wakes up 3/4 times , very unusual for
Him.
Wwyd?

Doesn’t sound too bad if he’ll nap after play group and still go to bed by 7:30/8

My child dropped her nap by that age already but if naps are important to you (him) then that should be something you ask about before enrolling (sample schedule for the day) or before switching schools for him

This is my second child. I never had this issue with previous morahs so never thought to ask...
And the nap seems to be important to him; I want him to be happy. If he'd be happy without one so would I be.

I just feel bad that he's so fussy and upset when he wakes up at 4/4:30. When he napped at 10/12 am he woke up so happy!
