That’s right…nap time is becoming a BIG problem! The twins are currently going through a “difficult” napping phase – ie. they DON’T want to nap! I on the other hand survive on that one hour of relative peace each day, so naps are simply not optional!
They are only three and almost all of my children have napped until age 5…a little longer than some children I know, but very nice just the same.

I don’t have any good advice for twins, but I think I’d let the 5 yr. old know he’ll have to start napping if he continues to keep his little brothers from sleeping.
