How do YOU know when your child needs to nap?

What are the signs that your child gives off when they need to sleep.

All of the above and when she's truly exhausted and about to fall asleep she stares into space.

Andy is exactly the same, but it's his right ear. Plus he gets fussy.

Sarah now will tell me she wants a nap or to go to bed.

Rubs eyes, looses interest in an activity, starts to get cranky and my fav - Nate will look for his paci and then start rubbing his head against your arm or legs.

DD grabs her beary and her binky and rolls all over the floor and DS grabs his blankie and binkie and wants to be held.

DS naps around the same time everyday because that is when I put him down and I noticed he sleeps the longest. He goes down around 10:30 and if it a lot later then I he hardly naps.

When he was smaller and I didn't have this routine he would usually rub his eyes.

Kaitee rubs her eyes and nose. Mostly her nose. She also comes to me and reaches for me and wines a little when I pick her up.

He has this sleepy cry - its not as loud, and he does it with his eyes half closed - he also stares off to the side...

Ryan starts to stare off into space, sucks his thumb and lies down on the floor with his face against the carpet.
