27 month old to hyper when put to bed

[Crazylou]

Lately my DS is so hyper when put to bed at 8pm he rolls about, wants toys in bed, laughs at you, will not lie down still, jumping about, for nearly an hour, has anyone got any ideas how to encourage him to lie down, he goes for nap at 12pm no problem by himself but at night he's just to hyper

Time to cut down or drop the nap?

I'd start by dropping the nap

My 23 month old is like that if she's overtired, so if bedtime is late or her nap didn't happen. Just an alternative idea to dropping the nap.
