About This Song

One of our first songs was a lullaby featuring folk singer Mama Goose. After recording, we decided to let Foxy have a shot at recording this a laid-back, melodic spin on one of our first tracks. It hits different when you need something a little softer to wind things down. Featuring an extended outro thats designed to give parents the time to pause the music and sneak out of the room.

This gentle family hip hop nap time song is perfect for babies, toddlers, and preschoolers who need a little extra convincing that rest is worth it. Follow this advice down to the letter — nap time is great, and now it sounds even better!

If your little one loved this, check out Time to Take a Nap, I’m Not Tired, and Inside Voices for more calming Snuggle Bunch songs!

Wind-down tip: this song anchors the final phase of our toddler bedtime routine playlist.

Lyrics

🎵 🎵 🎵 🎵 🎵 🎵

It’s time to take a nap, to make you feel good
If you don’t nap, you won’t feel like you should
Because nap time is great, I tell you it’s true
I’d take a nap too, but I’ve got clean up to do

Because when you nap, you feel better
Follow this advice down to the letter

Take a nap once or twice a day
It’s the best way to slay and play
It’ll keep you feeling good until the sun goes down
And when you wake up, we’re gonna paint the town

It’s time to take a nap
It’s time to take a nap
It’s time to take a nap

Nap time, nap time
Nap time, nap time

  • Squeaky Clean!

    ByFoxy Rox

    Bath time in our house goes one of two ways: absolute refusal to get in, or absolute refusal to get out. Usually both. “Squeaky Clean!” is for that first hurdle — getting everyone into the tub with minimal negotiations. Once the suds are flowing and the rub-a-dub-dub kicks in, even the most reluctant bather starts having a good time. Just please don’t pee! We’re trying to get clean.

  • Schmutz!

    ByWolfie

    There’s always something on their face. You don’t know what it is, or how it got there, but it needs to come off before we meet the grandparents! “Schmutz!” is a love letter to that universal parent move — the lick-the-thumb wipe, the sleeve grab, the “hold still for one second” that never actually takes one second. Sometimes it’s crusty, sometimes it’s soft, and it’s always the most embarrassing moment.

  • THREEnager!

    ByWolfie

    They want it. They need it. They must have it right now! You hand it over and…nope, they don’t want it anymore, it’s on the floor. Welcome to three. “THREEnager!” is told from the kid’s perspective — they make a fair point: they’ve only been on this planet for three short years, everything is a challenge. That doesn’t make the “why why why” phase any easier to survive, but at least now it has a beat!

  • Ducky! (Quack Quack Quack)

    ByWolfie

    “Ducky! (Quack Quack Quack)” is a little different from other Snuggle Bunch songs. It’s an experimental, sample-based track born from a moment of pure joy — watching my one-year-old spot his favorite rubber ducky and completely lose it with excitement! It’s not a lyrical deep-dive, and it’s not trying to be. It’s a vibe! Playful, chaotic, and overflowing with the kind of happiness only a toddler and a bath toy can create.
