Is your toddler ready to drop their nap? Look for these signs to determine if now is the time: -staying awake (can be playing, singing, being silly etc.) in their room for an extended time in the evening -Increased stamina during awake periods -will often still nap easily I have seen children as young as 2.5 up to nearly 4-years-old be ready to drop their nap. I encourage parents to monitor this change in sleep behaviour for a good couple of weeks before implementing any changes. If 4/5 nights a week include a lengthy bedtime party, it may be time to drop the nap!
