I am struggling with my 3 year old with a nap every day. I know he is tired, he just won't take a nap without a fight. I am sick and tired of it. It has been this way since he was a baby. Enough is enough. Is there anybody out there that has any good suggestions? I have tried just about everything! HELP ME!!!!

Maybe you should try to make it fun. Do something before that will get him really tired - take a walk or play catch in the backyard, then read him a book that he enjoys (if you need a good book - check out my website at www.ubah.com/M2001 - but if you have one he likes, then use that). Also, maybe call it something other than nap time - to some kids nap is a bad word. Maybe say you are going to rest or relax or something liek that. Good luck and I hope I have helped a little!!

Try and make naptime FUN, not another struggle. Tell him if he goes to bed like a good boy, maybe like, the 'bedtime fairy' will visit him and get him a special present. As he gets used to naps, he won't need 'treats', and he'll be fine!
