    Actually in most of mainland Europe school runs 7.30am-1.30pm and EVERYONE goes home for a nap in the middle of the day! It's not at all the international norm for people to be awake all day, people in many many societies go on having a mid-day siesta all their lives! To them it is incredibly odd to try to prevent a small small child sleeping in the middle of the day.

    DS has decided recently that he will only have a nap once every 3 days - so atm we get a day sleep on average 2 times a week - much to my dismay - i was kind of relying on his day sleep for me to have a nanna nap - we still try every day but he knows me too well
