Too Big to Take a Nap Deanna K Kauzlaric Kieffer

Is nap time a struggle? As your child grows older, have you experienced resistance to naps even when you know your child is less apt to have accidents, be more cheerful and generally enjoy themselves more later in the day IF they are rested. "I am too old to take a nap," is a common reply that makes perfect sense to many a preschooler. So, here is a book that offers a sympathetic read. Of course, they are too old. This story poem agrees with them in an understanding way. It also awakens the bright side of naps as a time to think, to explore the imagination, to get ideas and to dream. Quality time! In an era when so many people have difficulty benefiting from their own company, isn't it a good idea to instill this valuable concept at an early age?
