Naptime tips desperately needed!

[playfelt]

What if you just sit on the mat with them and not lay with them. You move to each and genty push them back down when they try to stand up. Mostly if we can get the kids to stay laying down they fall asleep. Too many getting up times and they get themselves so overtired they just can't settle.

I would be afraid of laying down and falling asleep myself if I was having an exhausting day and you don't have the security of having them in playpens where they would be safe.

Some parents might not like the idea of them all sleeping together since we are supposed to keep bedding separate etc.
