Am asking about the ages because it seems odd for children to be at the park at naptime, or at least rest time. Are Montgomery County schools out for vacation already?

If I ever see anything concerning, I *always* think of some friendly small talk to get a better sense of what's going on. That's why I don't really believe a caring person would just say absolutely nothing.[/quote]

I have no dog in this race, but will just say I have 3 girls who are 3, 5, and 7. The 3 yr old does not nap and I homeschool. Thus, we are able to do things like go to a playground in the middle of the day. [/quote]
Wow. I didn't know a three year old could manage without a nap all day. My three year old twins take a three hour nap every day.[/quote]

Yep. If circumstances are just so, she may fall asleep for an hour, but otherwise she'll keep going and going, until she crashes around 8:30 at night. [/quote]
I can't imagine how either of you make it through that long of a day, every day. I'd at least make her have "quite time" for an hour.[/quote]

One of my twins stopped napping around 2.5, except for occasionally falling asleep in random places without warning (once on the kitchen floor with her hand in the cat's water dish while I was in the bathroom. Go figure). The other kept napping until he was a few months past their third birthday. I can't imagine a three hour nap a day for them! I would keep my fingers crossed for an hour or two. We kept up "quiet time" until they were around 3.5, but then they started full day pre-school and it was rare that either would lie down afterwards. Before anyone attacks me for sending my three year olds to full day pre-school, they have autism, so it was half a day of "regular" pre-school and half a day of "special" school (which is when they had speech, OT, PT, etc). They were asleep by 8pm every night, though, until this year (they're in first grade now). [/quote]
