Have you heard of a Nana nap?

You beat me to it lixy 🤣
Me and DP have power naps all the time.

We call them power naps in our house, and very useful they are too!

Cheeky whatsit! Give him a saucy wink and tell him you were having a Nana fantasy. About engineers.

NanaNap is a well known and used expression in the Northeast. I’m not a napper, unless I’m unwell. (Or had a lunchtime glass of wine!).

Is every femail in Spain a nana ( siestas) 😊

Ah, that makes sense!
My DC used it first

It was this!
He does various scenarios in the style of a horse racing commentator.
This is the Christmas one.
My money is on ‘Over Opinionated Sister in Law’

Ironically, the only one in our family who doesn't nap is me! The rest can all fall asleep at the drop of a hat and love a wee nap from time to time. I, on the other hand, can't sleep at all during the day, no matter how tired or ill I am. So no, no nana naps here.

Maybe Aussie gran can tell us if it is Australian?
I was really enjoying mine until the bell went,he still hasn't arrived today so I might be having another. It might get him here before it is dark.
I'm afraid where I come from we tell the children to have a Bo Bo's and it has hung on in our family.

Ah, that makes sense!
My DC used it first

I think that it may have originated in Australia.
I heard an Australian comedian refer to it about 7 or 8 years ago.
Could be wrong of course

Yes.
I feel like having one today.

I'm not "Nana" either.
Anyone can have a Nana nap, age and status are irrelevant, apart from babies and toddlers who have day-time sleeps.

Yes, but I wouldn't use it either!

Yes. I’ve heard this being used but I wouldn’t use it myself.

I'm a grandma in my 70s but never have a nap unless I'm unwell or had a bad night. If I start falling asleep during the day or early evening then I have to ask why. I do need a good night's sleep, so if I have to get up earlier than usual then I struggle to make it through to bedtime. But normally, no I'd never want or need to have a nap.

Yes, I’ve heard of it. Friends and family use it. Obviously it doesn’t apply to me

Never heard it. I'm also Grandma.

But I think I'll have myself a nana nap shortly

Yes I’ve heard it and don’t like it. Don’t know why, I just don’t.

I wish I could,but I have never been able to sleep during the day since childhood.

I’ve never heard the expression but I certainly enjoy an afternoon nap now and again.

Me too nana54 but school pick up today so no chance.

Yes and I could just fancy a quick one now!

Most definitely yes and I frequently have one!
