[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Naps are not silly. Sleep is a basic biological need. Read the chapter in nurture shock on sleep. Sleep (or lack thereof) has a huge impact on physical, psychological and academic success.[/quote] So all children in academia should nap? Yes, sleep is critical but napping? Not so much. [/quote] Sleep is critical and therefore napping is critical until children naturally drop the nap. If you rely on them to just adjust to you removing the opportunity to nap you will end up with chronically overtired kids. Sleep that is outside of the child's natural biological rhythms is less restful.[/quote]
