All kids are different though, my gf's daughter hated day sleeps from about 18 months so sleep time turned into quiet time with toys on her bed. Whereas if Paris (6) is tired she'll still happily take herself off for an afternoon nap. I have two sleepers. But Seth (2) still has days where he doesn't like or have day sleeps. I think they are all different and sometimes its easier to work with what you've got iykwim?
