I always thought that was a little much...come on...naptime!?
Oh well...most kids were pretty good at keeping them on.
We were the same way at the center I worked at. And one time we did have a fire alarm go off (someone was baking in the staff kitchen and it started smoking) and I had 1 girl in the 5 year old room who had took her shoes off at nap and everyone was lining up and she was saying, "Where's my shoes?" First thing out of my mouth was "That's why we don't take them off at nap time!"
But when you have a room full of 18 kids all who want their shoes put on and tied, you teach them not to take them off!! It was craziness before that!
