How to get 2 1/2 month old to take a longer afternoon nap?

So my 2 1/2 month daughter goes down for her morning nap (b/w 9-10, getting up b/w 12-1) just fine, but after I feed her again and do some activity/tummy time, it's a struggle to get her to take more than a 30-40 minute afternoon/early evening nap.

I was going to suggest a bit more play time after her food, Some times more sctivity or even you going outside and getting some fresh air helps.
