All children are required to have a rest period in the afternoon, whether it is on their beds or doing a quiet activity as not to disturb the other children. Having rest time gives everyone some down time and prevents children from becoming over tired and will help them be in a better mood for the afternoon activities.
Children will sleep in a playpen until around 15-18 months until they make the transition to sleeping on a bed cot. The lights are turned off and the room darkened with soft soothing sleep music playing.
