Here’s a novel idea – for those nap times that little Johnny just won’t go down for a nap, how about having Winnie the Pooh read him a story? Try the upcoming release called The House at Pooh Corner by AA Milne.
A friend was telling me that her three year old is not napping at preschool when every one else sleeps. The poor guy has to sit/lay there for 2 whole hours while everyone else snores away…what torture! The teacher suggested my friend send her son off to school with an iPod so he can at least lay down and listen to something interesting…and it got me to thinking, are there children’s books on tape for such a thing? And, if so, can a three year old manage to listen to it?
I simply don’t know – do you? If you have any insight in to this, I’d be all ears, as they say. In the meantime, I did find this Winnie the Pooh book on CD that looks quite promising, to be released on September 22. Seems like Pooh is up to his old antics.

This is a great idea, although I’m not sure if my little boy would have the patience to lie there and listen to a book on CD for more than five minutes. He’s happy when I read to him, but without another person there I don’t think he would last long.
Isn’t this just one step away from sending your kid off to school with his own little TV? I mean, isn’t there some other way to deal with a non-napper?
