I'm sure this has been done before so apologies, but wanted a bit of advice.
DD still has an afternoon nap (she is nearly two). She has it after lunch, so normally goes down at about 1.45-2ish. By this time she is yawning so is clearly tired. The problem is, I put her in her cot and she will talk/sing for up to an hour sometimes, then will fall asleep (about 3pm) for a couple of hours. This means the doesn't naturally wake up until 5pm which is teatime. She then has food, a bath at 6.30 and bed at 7.30 once she's had milk & stories. It is then taking her another hour to fall asleep (singing and talking).
She's happy enough in her bed but I feel that she isn't quite tired enough at bedtime because her afternoon nap has gone on until 5ish. So, do I wake her from her nap at 4 regardless of how long she's slept? Part of me thinks that if she's sleeping it must mean she is tired & needs it...?
How long do your two year olds sleep in the afternoon?
