[QUOTE="yourturntoloveit, post: 185717, member: 57"]No better place to calm a too-sleepy and fighting-going-to-bed young child in a hot/warm area of the country than to let a child curl up or stretch out on a "glider" on a porch in the cool of the evening when the sun was setting or had already set. Oh the countless hot summer nights (pre-central-air-conditioning days) I was sound asleep on Grandma and Grandpa's front porch "glider" and then was picked up and carried to a bed inside their house for the night. :happy: If the "glider" didn't do the trick a grown-up could always hold and rock a child in a rocking chair on the front porch or hold a child in a "swing" suspended from the ceiling at one end of the porch to cool off and relax a child (and an adult as well). ;)[/QUOTE]
