What’s everyone doing about napping in the car?

My baby will always fall asleep in the car even if its after she’s just had a nap and I feel like this ruins her sleep schedule. How can I prevent her from falling asleep? Even if she’s just woken up from a nap and let’s say the journey is 30 mins, she’ll fall asleep in the last like 5/10 minutes then I either have to sit in the car until she wakes up or wake her up

Ahh I have this issue too 🙈 I try singing and talking loudly to her to try and keep awake but with no success! I guess I am the same though as I have always been able to fall asleep in the car easily so she must get it from me!

I find if its just a 5-10 min nap that it doesn't affect his schedule so I just wake him up and carry on as usual.

I also try and time car rides during a nap time. Much easier that way

If you have electric windows, open a back window a little bit and then close it again. It distracts my LO enough if I'm 5 mins away from home!
