Playgroup/Mainly Music @ 11am??

Hey Guys,

DS is 13 months old and still having 2 naps a day at around 9am and 2pm. Problem with this is that all playgroup and music activities start at 9:30! Anyone know of a playgroup/mainly music or similar that starts 10:30 or 11ish?

I've searched high and low and can't find any - i thought one of you lovely ladies would be bound to know if one existed

p.s. we live in Auckland, North Shore

Thanks guys!

It is a pain isn't it.

Taka- wiggle & ryhme is on 11.30 on Mon and Birkenhead at 11 on Fri

How long is his morning nap? Will be cope with just an hr and then go to a playgroup staight afterwards (I am sure it won't matter if you are late).

Yeah Wriggle & Rhyme at Takapuna Lib is great!  You should check it out.  Then you can go for a walk along Taka Beach or have a picnic lunch there if the weather is good

I had the same prob with my DS1 at that age and at around 14 months we started going to a playgroup once a week and i found he could stay up till 11 with all the excitement and stimulation, so we'd leave early at 11, lunch in car and bed as soon as we got home. It was a bit rushed for a few weeks then he adjusted. Eventually all his sleeps were pushed back to about 11 and then we could go places easier. It's a tricky age cos they start to need something more to do but also need those sleeps. Lucky you with a great sleeper, DS1 is still a great sleeper.

Swimming lessons etc may be on at better times too, or some of the YMCA classes - they do pre-school gym and some music things.

Well I found 2 that started later in the morning: Windsor Park at 10:30 and Birkenhead at 11:00 BUT they're both on Wednesdays and I work on Wednesdays! haha oh well. Maybe I'll have to look into changing what days I work I also came across Pee Wee Gym at the YMCA on a Wednesday that looks super-cute!
