Is it true that if a child refuses to take a nap, it means they are resisting a rest?

Yes, it is possible that if a child refuses to take a nap it could mean they are actively resisting the opportunity to take a break. It could be signs of stress or anxiety regarding going to sleep or it could just be that they are overtired and need more stimulation during the day. Some children have difficulty transitioning in to naps and often require gentle encouragement and positive reinforcement when starting this routine. Setting aside time for relaxation, quiet activities, reading stories or even music can help ease them into napping successfully.
