What do you use for naptime?

so most of you just make a sleeping area in bedrooms? I'm not sure I'd want to have someone napping in my sons room, mostly because I'm not sure how my son (6 yrs old) would feel about that lol

If your son is at school full time then the child would be in there when he isn't. The joys of a packnplay is that it can be taken down each night. In the summer it could be a different issue if your son uses the room for play. In that case put the child that only takes one nap in there and then there is only a 2 hour period per day child is unable to be in their room. Also remember as they get older they will move to a mat and could be put somewhere else so it is only a temporary thing. My kids grew up with the daycare in place so they never knew it any different. They had "naptime" buckets they packed in the summer that were brought out in the livingroom while the other kids were sleeping - ie stuff they wanted from their room. Yes there battles sometimes if they forgot something but it was also a good lesson in being prepared and thinking ahead and knowing what went with what - barbie doll clothes are only fun if you remember the doll or vice versa.

I feel the same!! I have a main floor daycare room. My daughter sleeps upstairs in her crib, but my other 2 little ones sleep in pack and plays at either end of my living room. My 3year old dck sleeps on a yoga mat in the playroom!
