Will is in the transitional stage of needing/not needing a nap. Really I think he still does most days, but since he knows that Catherine doesn't take a nap it's getting harder to convince him he does too. So we're trying the "every other day" approach at this point. On the days he doesn't nap I get him to play quietly by himself for at least 30 mins and then he and Catherine can play together for another 30 mins. I really would like for him to learn to play by himself for the whole hour, but we're working up to it. Some days though, I find him like this. And he thinks he's not tired!
