[quote=Anonymous]Sounds very much like my son! He's 3, and since he turned 2, his post nap mood is horrible. He's just a cranky mess after he wakes up for about 45 minutes to an hour. And, like your son, it doesn't matter how long he sleeps. We deal with it by creating a post-nap routine. After he wakes up, he immediately gets a snack (juice, crackers, fruit, etc.) and comes to the TV room to watch a show. Most of the time, when his 30-minute Super Why or Curious George is over, he's ready to move on with his afternoon. This routine doesn't solve the problem, because he's still a bear when he wakes up from his nap, but we find it's a good way to deal with it.[/quote]
