[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Mine will turn 4 in October, too. She sleeps about 12 hours a night and takes a 2-hour nap every day.[/quote]

Sounds great.

Does she have a lot of physical activities?

How do you encourage this schedule?, tell us your secret.[/quote]

I want to ask this PP if she actually watches her child on a monitor to see if she's sleeping. Our video monitor broke when my daughter was about a year old, and we didn't get another video monitor until we had a baby when DD was 2.5. We set up the camera in her room and realized a lot of the time she was just quietly playing with stuffed animals, rolling around in bed, etc., but a lot of the time I thought she was sleeping.[/quote]

This is the original PP. No, we don’t have a monitor anymore, but we can hear if she’s up and playing.

No real secret; she just enjoys sleep. The only thing I’d say is that during the night (so between 8pm-8am) we have never gone in unless she’s really upset. That’s been the case ever since she stopped nursing at night. She knows that’s the nighttime. We also lock her door from the outside, per her pediatrician’s guidance, so she stays in her room.
